Making Your Own Impossible Meat Style Protein

Making your own Impossible Meat style protein is easier than you might think! With a few simple ingredients, you can create a copycat version of the popular plant-based meat that is perfect for your vegan Halloween recipes. 

The key to replicating the texture and flavor of meat is to use a combination of textured vegetable protein (TVP) and pea protein powder. TVP is made from soybeans that have been processed and dehydrated, resulting in a high-protein, low-fat ingredient that is perfect for creating meat-like textures. Pea protein powder, on the other hand, is derived from yellow split peas and provides additional protein and a smooth texture to your meat substitute.

To bring it all together and create a cohesive meat-like texture, you’ll need a plant-based binder like the Druids Grove Plant Based Burger Binder. This ingredient helps to bind all the components together and gives your Impossible Smurf the perfect consistency.

To achieve the blue color that gives the Impossible Smurf its spooky appearance, you can add a few drops of blue food coloring to the mixture. Don’t forget to season your protein mixture with your favorite seasonings to give it that savory, meaty flavor.

By following these simple steps and using these key ingredients, you’ll be able to make your own Impossible Meat style protein at home. Get creative with your recipes and enjoy the delicious and unique flavor of this plant-based alternative. Happy Halloween!

Burger Binder Gel for Copycat Impossible Meat Recipes

All of the recipes for making Impossible Meat-style plant-based proteins require having some pre-made burger binder gel on hand. Making the gel gets a lot of trapped air in that will settle out after being left to rest a day. One batch will make a few recipes, and also stores well covered in the fridge for several weeks.

Marbling Fat For Impossible Meat Copycats

The little bits of fat that makes Impossible Meat-style products look and taste realistic have to be made ahead of time also. Binding tasteless and odorless refined coconut oil with some burger binder keeps the fat bound up in the meat for the realistic qualities. Being on a plant based diet, or becoming a vegan, can be tough for big eaters that love their food. Realistic meat substitutes make it easy.

Forming and Cooking Impossible Smurf Patties

Carefully place the patties in the skillet and cook them for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are nicely browned and cooked through. You can also cook them on a grill or in the oven if you prefer.
