Most lecithin on the shelf comes from soy. This one is drawn from sunflower instead, which is the reason to pick it - a genuinely soy-free option for anyone avoiding soy in their cooking, and one that comes as a loose powder rather than a capsule.
The powder is 100% sunflower lecithin, a plant source of phospholipids and choline, and the flavour is mild with a slightly nutty edge. That means it disappears into most things rather than announcing itself.
A rounded teaspoon, about 2.5 g, is the measure. It goes into smoothies, over cereal, through yoghurt, into baking, and stirs into sauces and dressings. Adjust it up or down depending on the recipe and how you find the taste.
At 250 g the pouch is a compact pantry size - roughly a hundred teaspoons - which suits someone using it daily as easily as someone reaching for it a few times a month. It is non-GMO and free from gluten, dairy and artificial additives.
Keep it tightly sealed away from moisture, since a powder like this takes up damp readily. Not a sole source of nutrition; check with your health professional first if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or under medical supervision.
