Delicious and healthier versions of your favorite meals are now possible as Quorn, the world leader in meat-free food, is now available in leading supermarkets in the country.
Quorn, from the United Kingdom, offers a range of deliciously meat-free protein products. It enables you to enjoy healthier versions of your favorite meals—whether you go for ingredient-type products that allow you to cook from scratch like chunks or grounds, or for ready-to-cook options like nuggets. Its main ingredient is Mycoprotein – a naturally healthy protein that is high in fiber, low in saturated fat, and has zero cholesterol.
Available all over Europe, the US, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, Quorn was introduced in the Philippines last year in events that enticed Filipino foodies—including the staunchest meat eaters—with savory dishes featuring meat-free versions of chicken nuggets and grounds. With its spot-on taste and texture that replicates that of real meat, Quorn has convinced even the likes of noted chef, restaurateur, and hardcore carnivore Florabel Co-Yatco who “couldn’t tell the difference” between Quorn’s crispy chicken nuggets and the real deal. “My young daughter eats them,” she says. “I could eat five of them!”
With Chef Florabel being one of its earliest and biggest advocates, Quorn announced its much awaited availability in a press event held at Florabel restaurant at Estancia in Pasig. The event also featured one of Quorn’s newest advocates – Chef JP Anglo of the widely successful Filipino restaurant Sarsa. Guests were treated to a collaboration of the two top chefs as they served various Asian-inspired dishes such as Quorn Xiu mai with Truffle, Quorn Crispy Parcels with Pickled Papaya and Garlic Vinegar, Quorn Satay and Inasal, and Sweet and Sour Quorn with three-grain Fried Rice.
Guests were pleasantly surprised with how the product was able to replicate the taste and texture of meat, showing its versatility in the various dishes prepared.
Filipinos can also make healthier versions of their favorite meals as Quorn is now available in leading supermarkets, like S&R, Rustan’s, Shopwise, SM Supermarket, SM Savemore, SM Hypermarket, Robinsons, Puregold, Metro Gaisano, Landmark, Waltermart, Hi Top, Citimart, and Jenra.
