Although not a common item in most households in the United States, tempeh, with its distinctively nutty taste and nougat-like texture, is increasing in popularity. Tempeh easily absorbs the flavors of the other foods with which it is cooked making it adaptable to many types of dishes.

A food made from fermented soybeans, tempeh provides not only the protein found in soybeans but their many other health benefits as well. It is a very good source of manganese and a good source of protein, copper, phosphorous, vitamin B2 and magnesium. In addition, tempeh is a good source of monounsaturated fats.
