TAMEE
THE AUTHENTIC MEAT EATING EXPERIENCE
Our novel precision-fermentation-based ingredient revolutionizing the taste of plant-based alternatives
TAMEE is an innovative formulation based on animal-free bovine myoglobin produced by precision fermentation. This ingredient replicates key sensory attributes such as the smell, color, and taste of conventional meat in plant-based products.
What is MYOGLOBIN?
Myoglobin is an oxygen-binding protein found in animal muscle tissue. it’s responsible for meat’s characteristic red color and plays a major role in the taste and aroma that develop during cooking.
