Siddharth Ramasubramanian, CEO and founder of Hello Tempayy said: “Our primary research and insights, before launching Hello Tempayy, showed us that most consumers in India, ranging from vegetarians to conscious foodies, struggle to find enough variety in their meals. This is exacerbated by the challenge of meeting the nutrition gap, as most vegetarian diets in India do not meet the daily protein requirement. This is where a product like Hello Tempayy fills the gap. Tempayy is a vegetarian ingredient that has the potential to be a healthy and versatile staple in the Indian kitchen. It is incredibly versatile, so you can use it in any way you like. It can be consumed across any meal variant or cuisine you enjoy, due to its ability to absorb flavour as well as its versatility in cooking formats. As cubes, it works in curries, stir-fries and salads.”
