So, what is hydrolysed vegétable protein?
Hydrolysed vegetable protein, also known as HVP, is a flavour enhancer derived from vegetables such as corn, soy, and wheat. This ingredient is created by breaking down the protein in these vegetables into their component amino acids, which creates a savory and umami taste that is commonly used in processed foods. HVP is often used as a substitute for monosodium glutamate (MSG) and can be found in a wide range of products including soups, snacks, and sauces. Its versatility and ability to improve the flavour profile of foods make it a popular ingredient in the food industry.
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.
