Elmhurst 1925 launches TerraMeat Plant-Based Chick’n

Elmhurst 1925, known for its plant-based dairy products, has announced its latest innovation: TerraMeat Plant-Based Chick’n. With a clean ingredient list and outstanding protein delivery, this plant-based chicken alternative reaffirms Elmhurst’s commitment to setting the standard for simplicity and nutrition in the plant-based food industry. This groundbreaking expansion into plant-based protein offers 26g of complete protein from one simple ingredient.

Crafted by food scientist Dr Cheryl Mitchell, TerraMeat Plant-Based Chick’n starts with a single, sustainable ingredient: hemp protein. This protein is derived from industrial hemp, a naturally drought-resistant crop that requires significantly less water than other fiber plants. Utilizing Elmhurst 1925’s patented HydroRelease method, the wholesome, protein-packed chicken alternative is created. This method involves starting with the hemp grain and using only water to release its natural protein into a highly digestible and functional powder, maintaining the full nutritional profile of the natural hemp protein.

TerraMeat starts as a dry powder, allowing consumers to craft their own fresh plant-based chick’n cutlets. By simply blending the powder into water, adding a little bit of oil and a spice blend, and heating it in the microwave, TerraMeat Plant-Based Chick’n develops the texture and layering that you get in traditional meats without the need for filler ingredients, texturizing agents, whiteners, and other unnecessary additives currently found on shelves.

“With the launch of Elmhurst 1925 TerraMeat Plant-Based Chick’n, we are bringing the same innovation and commitment to quality that we brought to plant-based dairy,” commented Henry Schwartz, CEO of Elmhurst 1925. “Consumers are increasingly seeking simple ingredients and clean-label alternatives to the ultra-processed options on the market. We couldn’t be prouder to offer a product that excels in taste, texture, and nutrition.”

Elmhurst 1925 TerraMeat Plant-Based Chick’n has the fewest ingredients of current plant-based chicken offerings, 26g of complete protein per serving to keep you feeling fuller longer, and is soy-free. Once you’ve crafted your TerraMeat cutlet, it can be grilled, baked, braised, or fried, offering versatility that matches traditional chicken, making it appealing to both home cooks and professional chefs.

Like all Elmhurst products, TerraMeat Plant-Based Chick’n is Non-GMO Product Verified, gluten-free, dairy-free, OU Kosher, vegan, and crafted through the company’s unique HydroReleaseTM method. HydroRelease upcycles any waste into energy and is powered by 100% renewable Hydroelectric Power to drive sustainability every step of the way.
