Guest guest Posted July 1, 2002 Report Share Posted July 1, 2002 Do you get Uncle Ben's rice in the US? Here in Canada that is the most popular brand and it is "converted rice". It isn't like Minute Rice or anything. It is good and you can also get it in converted brown rice which cooks more quickly than regular brown rice (25min as opposed to 45min).

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2002 Report Share Posted September 23, 2002 > What are tvp chunks? > What is TVP? Textured Vegetable Protein " TVP " is a trademark name of the product. I forget the patent company (Archer McDaniels?) From The Mail Order Catalog: " 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. " There is more info at the web site's FAQ page: http://www.healthy-eating.com/textured%20soy.htm#questions I've been buying it for years from these people (http://www.healthy-eating.com) and it comes in a few different sizes, shapes, and flavorings. The granules resemble ground beef in texture when rehydrated. The strips, chunks, and super-chunks look like Gravy Train dog food in the big bags. They also sell bigger pieces that resemble chicken cutlets when rehydrated. The flavor is difficult to describe, but this stuff *does* pick up the flavor of whatever it's cooked in, and plain, unflavored varieties and be made flavored by using broth instead of water when rehydrating. Flavored varieties are also available, such as ham, chicken, and beef. I prefer the unflavored, and buy both the granules (what recipes usually call for) and super chunks, and toss both into stews, soups, and chili. According to The Mail Order catalog, 1/4 cup of granules or 3/8 c unflavored slices contain: 70 calories 13 g protein 0.25 g fat 4.5 g fiber 8 g carbohydrates For an idea of what's available and prices, here's the link to their TVP page on their web site: http://www.healthy-eating.com/textured%20soy.htm I have no affiliation except as a satisfied customer.
