Most tofu on the market is made with a base of soybeans but Original Hemp Tofu by Hudson River Foods is a 100% soy-free tofu alternative that's entirely made with hemp seeds. Billed as "the first alternative to traditional tofu," the Original Hemp Tofu boasts 30 grams of plant-based protein per package and additionally provides all 10 essential amino acids.
The allergy-friendly Tempt 'Hempfu' is available in an Original variety, as well as creative flavors like Chorizo, Chimichurri and Chili Lime. The tofu alternative is just as versatile as conventional soybean tofu and has the potential to be incorporated into a variety of recipes.
Hemp is also included in other products from Hudson River Foods, including baking mixes and hemp milk.
