Is hydrolysoitu kasviproteiini vegan?

Hydrolysoitu kasviproteiini is a Finnish term that refers to hydrolyzed vegetable protein, which is a commonly used ingredient in the food industry. It is a plant-based protein derived from soybeans, corn, wheat, or peas that has undergone a hydrolysis process, where enzymes break down the protein into smaller molecules. This process results in a product that is easier to digest and absorb by the body, making it an excellent source of protein for vegans and vegetarians. Hydrolysoitu kasviproteiini is often used as a flavor enhancer, as it adds a savory taste and umami flavor to foods such as soups, sauces, and seasonings.
