  • Enhanced Flavour and Nutritional Enrichment

    The natural herbs and spices added to the Kentucky Fresh Tempeh elevate the Tempeh's taste with depth while enriching it with essential nutrients and potential health benefits.

  • High-Quality Protein

    Tempeh is a rich source of plant-based protein. It contains all nine essential amino acids, making it a complete protein source. This can be particularly beneficial for vegetarians and vegans who may struggle to get enough high-quality protein in their diets.

  • Prebiotics and Gut Health

    Tempeh is a fermented food which contains prebiotics and is rich in fibre. This promotes a healthy gut microbiome, aiding digestion, and enhancing overall gut health, while potentially boosting the immune system.

"It's unbelievably reminiscent of my old favourite fast food, yet healthy, wholesome and real—finally, a chicken-like plant protein that's not pretending to be meat!"

FAQ

What is Kentucky Fresh Tempeh (KFT)?

It’s our Organic Soy Tempeh, fermented with a special blend of herbs and spices, that once fully fermented and cooked, gives a poultry like flavour.

How do I cook KFT?

To achieve the authentic poultry like flavour of Kentucky Fresh Tempeh, the crucial step is cooking the spices. We suggest shallow-frying with quality oils like olive or avocado, or baking in the oven with these same recommended oils if you prefer a healthier option.

Is KFT healthy?

Certainly! Kentucky Fresh Tempeh is a complete protein, meaning it has all the essential amino acids your body needs. It's also high in fibre, iron, vitamins, and prebiotics, making it a fantastic addition to a healthy diet.

Does KFT taste like meat?

The Kentucky Fresh Tempeh has been fermented with a blend of specifically chosen herbs and spices that once cooked, gives a taste reminiscent of our old favourite KFC.

What are those black spots on my Tempeh?

No need to worry! Those are just harmless spores from the starter culture used in fermentation. They're completely safe to eat, but you can scrape them off if you prefer.

Can I freeze KFT?

Definitely! Freezing is a great way to extend Tempeh's shelf life. Simply wrap it tightly in cling film or store it in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 6 months. Make sure it's within the use by date on the packaging. Once defrosted, use it for 2 days. (Top Tip: we recomend you cut the tempeh into portion sizes before freezing).

Who knew Tempeh could taste this good?

I've tried to cook with Tempeh before and just didn't find it to have much flavour, this totally flips that concept on its head - it's full of flavour and I've been enjoying it in broths, noodles, with rice and even on its own as a snack. Delicious!
