BHJ Ingredients is to release its new chicken protein at IFFA in Frankfurt, Germany, next month. According BHJ Ingredients, the product is the world’s “first functional chicken protein”, which aims to add value and save on recipe costs without compromising quality, flavour or meat content.
The protein, which is a powder, is claimed to improve texture, firmness and succulence, as well as having a protein-to-water binding ratio of 1:8.
The product is also halal-approved. CEO and president of the company Asger S Jacobsen said the product is “a major development for the global poultry meat processing industry. Following worldwide demand for a functional chicken protein, we are confident there is a real appetite for our latest product innovation. This is why we are expecting to receive a tremendous response at IFFA.”
