Legumes for Texture & Protein

Legumes are plants that belong to the Fabaceae or Leguminosae family, which produce edible high-protein seeds inside their pods. The legume family includes peas, lentils and beans, and they’re one of the world's oldest cultivated crops.

We chose our exclusive six-legume blend of peas, chickpeas, lentils, soy, fava beans and navy beans because they’re the most popular legumes, and they play well together. And bingo! We found these legumes, when blended in the perfect proprietary ratios, render an amazing texture resembling the exact flakiness of seafood.

Aside from tasting great, legumes are nutritional powerhouses. They are:
• Packed with protein
• Full of dietary fiber and minerals
• Very low in fat

In the end, our six-legume blend is all about taste, texture and nutrition.

Algae Oil for Seafood Flavor & Omega-3 DHA

Our chefs and seasoned R&D team worked hard searching for a special plant that embodies that certain je ne sais quoi flavor of fine seafood. Where else to look but the sea, where they found their dream ingredient: algae oil, extracted from sea algae. Also known as algal oil, it offers the primary note in our authentic taste profile. It also brings the gift of DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), a prized essential omega-3 fatty acid found in fish oils, which fish absorb when they consume microalgae.

Our bodies crave omega-3s because they’re crucial to our wellbeing. They bolster our hearts, eyes, brains and nervous systems. Because we can’t make omega-3s ourselves, we need to choose from the limited food sources that offer them — like Good Catch products. More good news: Good Catch sources pure DHA from the beginning of the food chain, eliminating toxic levels of contaminants.
