Soy Curls, 8 OZ

I cannot overstate how great these are. Not only are they easy to prepare, but the taste and texture are superb. These are also SUPER versatile - I use them in wraps, salads, tacos, and as "BBQ chicken." I bet these would also be great to add to soups for some extra protein (though I haven't personally tried that yet)! Buy them - you won't be disappointed!

I've been using Butler Foods Soy Curls for a while now, and they are an absolute game-changer for anyone following a vegan diet or looking to cut down on meat consumption. These curls are effortless to prepare. You rehydrate the amount you need in water, which only takes a few minutes. After squeezing the excess water, you can marinate them in your favorite sauces or seasonings. What I love about these soy curls is their versatility. Depending on your preference, you can chop them up for different dishes, bake them, or sauté them. They absorb flavors wonderfully, making them a fantastic addition to stir-fries, tacos, or a protein-packed salad topping. Traveling with them is also super convenient, especially when you need a reliable vegan protein source to cook quickly at a hotel or a campsite. They are non-GMO and preservative-free, which makes them a healthy choice. Without the added spices or sauces, the curls will not have flavor. Some people may not like it. But we are happy to eat them from time to time.

I ordered the 4 pack a few times. This time I ordered the 6 pack. That tells you something. Please note that this is a natural product and even though it is dry, it can go bad. If you order a substantial amount that will take a long time to use up, store in your freezer. Rehydrates easily, has a great texture, good protein source, absorbs spices/flavorings well, is a whole food product --- it is made from the whole soy bean, not isolated soy protein. Great addition to my panty stables and probably to your pantry staples as well.

Amazing! These are so wildly versatile, and I just love all of the creative ways I can use them! These are mildly processed, so I include them in my Whole Foods Plant Based meal plan. Cruelty free, vegan and delicious! The customer support at Butler Foods is excellent! In particular Rhonda and Brenda were great!

This is a fantastic meat alternative especially for vegan chicken dishes. It does take a bit of research to figure out how to use it to veganise a dish. Otherwise it's a good and tasty product, though it is a bit pricey.

If you are not already in the soy curl club, I am absolutely no gatekeeper! I understand, whether you eat real meat or you don’t, a bag of dry strips doesn’t scream “appetizing”. It doesn’t. You have to trust. Rehydrate with hot water per package directions, but you are going to want to add a boullion cube or two, or soup base or something to build the flavor. You’ll season them in whatever you cook, too. After 15 minutes or so, drain them and squeeze as much water as you can out. They’ll probably still be pretty hot, so I put them in a colander and push a slightly smaller bowl into them in the colander. Then you have meaty strips you can take in COUNTLESS directions! A quick internet search will deliver you thousands of recipes created specifically for soy curls. They can replicate chicken, beef, or pork depending on how you prepare them. You should also experiment with substituting them in your already-favorite recipes. And they taste amazing in most things! I’ve fed them successfully to many meat-eaters and I didn’t even lie or trick them. That’s dirty play, in my opinion. Would you like it if someone did that to you? No, you wouldn’t. But you don’t have to, whatever you make will be so amazing there will be no need to trick anyone.

Here's all you need to know: my omnivore husband will eat these without complaint. That's a huuuuge win. They have a texture similar to grilled chicken, and the protein content is awesome for bulking up plant-based meals. They're a bit pricey, but I'm able to make a LOT of food with the three-pack, so it's worth it to me. If you're a meal-prepper, these freeze and defrost with no problems.
