重新定义肉,一家食品3D印刷公司开发了无动物的肉类,已商业地向以色列的选定餐厅和酒店推出了有史以来的首个“新肉食”产品。
使用该公司专有食品3D打印技术制造的新系列Alt-Meat产品包括6盎司汉堡,香肠,“羊肉”烤肉串,中东“雪茄”和碎牛肉。
Following testing and validation with leading chefs and consumers, the New-Meat products are now available in select restaurants and hotels in Israel. Redefine Meat plans to extend the rollout of the range to Europe in Q4 of this year and to the US and Asia in 2022.
除了其第一个产品系列的商业可用性外,该公司还揭示了今年晚些时候推出其首个整个CUT-Meat-Meat系列的计划。
“Launching our first product portfolio represents a big step in our mission to become the world’s largest meat company, and accelerates our ability to bring to market our further innovation later this year,” said Eshchar Ben-Shitrit, CEO and Co-founder of Redefine Meat. “Each product in the range and the ones to follow are born from our understanding of meat at the molecular level, extensive R&D and technological innovation, which combined provides us the ability to create any meat product that exists today.
“This has been critical to achieving a superiority in taste that honestly, we did not even expect, and the technological versatility to do what no other has done – replace every part of the cow with tasty plant-based meat.”
Redefining alt-meat with additive manufacturing
重新定义肉was established in 2018 with the goal of improving sustainability within the global meat industry. The Israel-based company has developed its own proprietary 3D printing technologies to produce plant-based meat alternatives that replicate the appearance, texture, and flavor of roasted meats and steak while negating the动物耕作的环境影响。
自成立以来,该公司已经迅速发展筹集了600万美元的种子资金in 2019 to advance the development of its alt-meat 3D printer. The printer itself reportedly has a 95 percent smaller environmental impact than animal meat produced via conventional farming. The following year, Redefine Meat unveiled its first industrially3D printed Alt-Steak product,由公司自己配制的Alt-Muscle,Alt-Fat和Alt-Blood植物成分组成。
在今年年初,该公司取得了成功large-scale blind-tasting of its Alt-Meat products与以色列肉类分销商Best Meister合作。这辆卡车接待了600多名游客,并在不到五个小时的时间内售罄,消费者的反馈证实了该公司的产品在风味和质地方面与真实的肉相当。由于该活动的成功,重新定义与Best Meister建立了战略合作伙伴关系,为该公司的Alt-Meat产品提供了以色列烹饪部门的基础设施。
最近,重新定义肉另外筹集了2900万美元的A系列资金除了扩大其Alt-Meat投资组合并加速该公司的国际增长外,还支持其产品的商业推出。
The 3D printed ‘New-Meat’ portfolio
重新定义肉’s first commercial 3D printed alt-meat range consists of five plant-based products, the first of which is the 6Oz Redefine Burger.
该汉堡是通过欧洲主要厨师和屠夫的反馈而开发的,可为消费者提供多汁但坚固的肉味咬合,其中包含笨重的谷物质地,人们会期望屠夫或牛排馆。在推出之前,Redefine Burger在以色列最负盛名的肉类餐厅之一的独家幕后发布中进行了测试,直到那时才从未服过Alt-Meat。
Also available in the New-Meat range is Redefine Ground Beef, which targets a gap in the alt-meat market for an easy-to-cook minced meat substitute. Claimed to possess a subtle “animalic” flavor, the ground beef can reportedly adapt to any cooking method and dish, performing particularly well on a charcoal grill. The product is designed to be used by chefs as a basis for a wide variety of dishes in their restaurants, and has a growing pre-order list from businesses in the US, Europe, and Asia.
该系列中的更多产品包括重新定义香肠,该香肠为猪肉香肠提供了一种基于植物的替代品,可保留笨重的肉类叮咬和重新定义雪茄,该雪茄模仿了经典的中东享受,是专门为酒店业设计的。雪茄具有片状的外壳,里面充满了新肉,可以成为典型的开胃小菜的一部分。
该系列中的最终产品是重新定义的烤肉串,已由公司以隐形模式开发了两年多。据称是在过去十年中引入的“有史以来最类似肉类的产品”,该产品被设计为从中东到印度的美食中普通羔羊肉类街美食菜肴的替代品。
The first Israeli restaurants and hotels offering Redefine Meat’s New-Meat product range are: Hudson, Nam, Asif Center, Eddi’s Hideout, The Lounge, Sinta Bar, C2, Guesta, Joz & Daniel, and Budega American Kitchen.
Ben-Shitrit说:“在2018年,我和我的联合创始人从一个愿景开始,将整个母牛用美味的肉类替代品代替了世界各地的肉类爱好者所接受的美味肉类替代品。”“在如此强大的投资者和战略合作伙伴的支持下,以及我们继续获得的令人难以置信的全球兴趣,我们取得的进步是惊人的,我们只是刚刚起步。
“对于那些寻求相信它的人,我鼓励您尝试我们的新肉食并自己品尝它。我们不希望您喜欢它,我们希望您的思想会被吹牛。”
