Lupin DAL/SPLITS TDS
Origin: Western Australia, Australia
Product Description:
Australian Sweet Lupin (ASL) Split is the Lupinus Angustifolius species, a very different species to bitter (Alkaloids) tasting South American and
some European lupin species. Through classical breeding over 60 years, the
ASL is a truly naturally sweet lupin, without the sugar.
Our Split lupin is created by gentle removal of the fibrous husk from the endosperm, so this is a high value, natural protein. Our process is purely mechanical and operates at a temperature of less than 360C, preserving the full value of the protein level availability – there is no denatured protein, so you get the full value as if you picked the bean straight off the plant.
Because of our focus on food safety our beans are all ‘Single-Origin’, providing unequalled vertical integration, traceability, and quality systems from pristine Australian farming operations – perfect for every global family table.
