Something you can make with cooked protein
Origin
Cooked protein is not a specific ingredient, but rather a term that refers to any type of protein that has been cooked. Protein can be derived from various sources such as animal products (meat, poultry, fish, eggs, and dairy) or plant-based sources (legumes, soy, tofu, tempeh, and seitan). The cooking process involves applying heat to the protein source, which denatures the proteins and changes their texture and flavor. The origin of cooked protein depends on the specific protein source used. For example, cooked chicken protein originates from chickens, cooked tofu protein originates from soybeans, and cooked beef protein originates from cows.
