With consumers increasingly making healthier dietary decisions, food manufacturers world-wide are responding, in increasing numbers, with plant-based protein options. One of the newest plant-based alternatives comes from the wild mountains of Peru—the Tara tree/shrub (Caesalpinia Spinosa). This small, thorny leguminous plant produces pea-style pods containing seeds. From the seed endosperm, Tara gum or Peruvian carob is produced and used as a plant-based thickener and emulsifier.
