Calling all jerky lovers--especially those of you who can't get enough of our Stonewall's and Cajun jerkies! Here is an entirely new concept in jerky: an organic gluten/tofu product in flat, chewy circles, with all the rich, zesty flavor you love.

Tofurky Jurky from Turtle Island, the "Tofurky People" This is the first great-tasting vegetarian jerky alternative made without the use of preservatives or liquid smoke. We take our Famous Tofurky Recipe, marinate it in GMO-free soy sauce, garlic, lemon juice, and evaporated cane juice overnight and smoke it in our own smokehouse on the banks of the Columbia River where jerky making has been a way of life for centuries. The "Jurky" is then vacuum-sealed under controlled conditions to insure freshness. The result is this delicious chewy, lightly smoked snack that is high in protein, low in fat, and free of any animal products *product info

Frequently Asked Questions About Textured Soy Protein & Concentrates

• What is it? Textured soy protein is a food product made from soybeans. It is produced from soy flour after the soybean oil has been extracted, then cooked under pressure, extruded, and dried.

• What's in it? The main ingredient is soy flour. Our unflavored textured soy protein products have absolutely no added coloring, flavoring, or preservatives. The Response flakes have vitamins added (see the package labels for a listing). The flavored products are 100% vegetarian--no flavorings from animal products. The main food elements are protein, carbohydrates and very little fat. Unflavored textured soy protein is essentially fat-free, since it is defatted during the manufacturing process. The fat content in flavored textured soy proteins varies.
  Textured soy protein is a complete protein, containing the essential amino acids. It also is high in isoflavones, which have been shown to reduce cholesterol and cancer rates.

• How long will it keep?
  Unflavored textured soy proteins will store indefinitely, if they are stored in a dry, air-tight container.
  Flavored textured soy proteins will store for up to one year in a dry, air-tight container.
  Once rehydrated, textured soy protein must be stored in refrigerator or freezer.

• How much does it make?
  - A 1 lb. bag will make about 12 servings, equal to 3 lbs. of ground beef.
  - 1 dry cup of textured soy protein granules is equivalent to 3/4 pound after rehydrating.

• How do I prepare it?
  - 1 dry cup of textured soy protein is reconstituted with 1 cup of boiling liquid. (Let it stand for 10 minutes.)
  - Unflavored textured soy protein takes on the flavors of whatever is used to season it.
  - Harvest Direct Broths are great for flavoring textured soy proteins.

• Where can I find recipes?
  We carry four cookbooks that have recipes:
      The TVP Cookbook
      I Can't Believe It's Not Meat
     The New Farm Vegetarian Cookbook

• Nutritional Information (also see specific information on individual products)
