PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
Fermented Fava Bean Pellets are well suited for Doubanjiang production, adding rich, savoury flavour, deep umami, and substantial texture. Their consistency enhances body and supports the thick, spreadable texture typical of fermented bean pastes.
The pellets can also be used in sauces, pastes (e.g. chilli bean paste & Toban-Djan), and other products that require concentrated fermented bean flavour, natural colour, and added texture.
SOY-FREE APPLICATIONS
Suitable for applications needing a fermented bean ingredient without soy-based beans. This lets manufacturers create alternative formulations while keeping the characteristic savoury depth and umami of fermented bean ingredients.
