Tempeh

Tempeh is a traditional Indonesian food made from fermented soybeans. The soybeans are cooked, inoculated with a specific mold, and left to ferment, which binds them into a firm, nutty-flavored cake. Rich in protein, fiber, and vitamins, tempeh is a popular meat substitute for vegetarians and vegans. It can be sliced, sautéed, or marinated, making it versatile for various dishes. Beyond its nutritional benefits, tempeh also promotes gut health due to its fermentation process. It's increasingly available in health food stores and supermarkets globally.
