Last year, FoodFarm participated in the Carbon Lunch or “Hiililounas” project organized by the University of Turku. The project explored the possibilities of Finnish plant proteins and customer feelings towards vegetarian meals. Several vegetarian recipes were developed alongside the project, and oilseed hemp, with its excellent nutritional value and sustainability as a protein source, was a clear choice for many recipes!

One of the favorite dishes among the participants was the hemp-based Biff à la Lindström patty – an originally Swedish dish usually made with ground beef – where the main ingredient is Murtola Hemp Farm’s Veggie Steak MIX. Diners rated the taste and texture of the dish as excellent.
