The PTO Polenta Processing Line
Polenta Tamal Okara (PTO):
A Multi-Cultural Twist on a Staple Food
Polenta, a cornmeal-based ready-to-eat (RTE) product originating in Italy, has been adapted worldwide. From Latin American tamales to various African paps, it serves as a staple food for millions with unique cultural preparations.Leveraging our expertise in soy processing plants, particularly soy milk production, we've identified value in Okara, the often-underutilized soy pulp. Through our patent-pending process, we fully integrate Okara with regular cornmeal. A specialized vitamin and mineral premix is added during processing, allowing us to tailor the final nutritional profile to address specific needs based on age, gender, malnutrition status, and cultural preferences.
PTO: Shelf-Stable and Customizable
Our PTO product undergoes thermal processing for room-temperature shelf stability. For extended shelf life, autoclave preservation is also available. We conduct feasibility studies for production lines ranging from 300 to 5,000 kg per hour. This project can integrate with existing soy milk processing lines or operate independently using soy meal instead of Okara. Collaboration Opportunities
