Konjac for Plant-Based Meatball and Sausage Applications
Konjac powder and konjac gum are widely used in the production of plant-based fish balls, vegan meatballs, and meat-free sausages, offering a halal-compliant, low-calorie, and fiber-enriched solution for clean-label food innovation in Southeast Asia.
Thanks to their gel-forming, water-retention, and texture-enhancing properties, konjac-based ingredients help replicate the springy, elastic texture that consumers expect in traditional meat products—without using any animal-derived components. As part of the superfood trend, konjac also provides glucomannan fiber, supporting digestive health and satiety.
This makes konjac ideal for:
- Halal-certified vegetarian fish balls
- Vegan meatball fillings
- Meat-free sausage formulations
- Fiber-rich ready-to-eat meals
