So, what is a base de soja?
"A base de soja" is a Spanish phrase that means "made from soybeans." This versatile ingredient has gained popularity in recent years due to its many health benefits, including being a rich source of protein, fiber, and essential amino acids. It is commonly used as a meat substitute in vegetarian and vegan dishes, but can also be found in a variety of other products such as tofu, soy milk, and soy sauce. Soybeans are low in saturated fat and cholesterol, making them a heart-healthy option. Incorporating "a base de soja" into your diet can be a delicious and nutritious choice.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
