Alternative proteins

• Food Preparation and Nutrition
• Lower Secondary (Key Stage 3)

Learning intent

To identify different types of alternative proteins and to compare them to animal proteins

How many non animal
proteins can you name?

Be careful...

Eduqas calls non animal protein 'alternative protein'

but the term usually includes novel sources such as crickets!

Work at your own pace

Access the PowerPoints and knowledge organisers in the Alternative Protein folder on Teams.

Make your own notes, then answer the questions on here. A blank knowledge organiser covering the HBV alternatives has

been printed for you. 

Is soya HBV or LBV?

What is textured vegetable protein made of?

Why might Quorn not be suitable for a vegan to eat?

Why might someone choose not to eat products containing soya?

Do nuts contain B group vitamins?

What is done to soya beans to make Tempeh?

Extension

Attempt the questions on p9-10 in the exam practice book  (soya, tofu, beans, nuts, seeds).

Mark them yourself and let me know any queries; please send me your mark out of 21 if you complete the questions.

How did it go?
