Ocean Hugger Foods | Plant Based Alternative to Raw Tuna, Salmon, & Eel
Manage episode 235749065 series 2367500
Plant-based products are in high demand today as more consumers switched to a veggie-centric lifestyle. With that in mind, we made sure to check out some of the many plant-based companies on the showroom floor.
Plant-based burgers are all the rage nowadays, but what about plant-based seafood? We decided to stop by the Ocean Hugger Foods Booth to learn more about the company's plant-based seafood products.
After James Corwell, certified master chef and founder of Ocean Hugger Foods visited the Tsukiji Market in Japan and saw how much tuna was being auctioned off for the use of Sushi, he decided he wanted to create solutions to better protect our ocean's food supply.
The first product the company developed was Ahimi®, a plant-based alternative to raw tuna often used to make sushi.
"It took knowing a little bit about the flavors of Japanese cuisine and tuna and tomatoes are those three things that kinda come together. Basically its the fifth taste umami or savory which is prevalent in Japanese sushi cuisine. It's also prevalent in tuna and tomatoes. So we're able to put 1, 2 & 3 together to make Ahimi," says Corwell.
Watch the video above to learn more about the seafood alternative and about the company's latest products Sakimi™, a carrot-based salmon alternative, and Unami™, an eggplant-based eel alternative, soon to be available.
