The Fermentation Unlock

A vast domain of nutrition, flavor, and sustainability benefits found in fermented foods has been held back from commercial food practices due to a lack of broad fermentation know-how across the culinary trades and the absence of a validated, efficient, safe, and repeatable way to unlock it.

OUR FOOD

Choice Legumes & Planit Blends

We are proud to offer shelf-stable, single-ingredient vegetarian solutions as well as proprietary texture and fermentation spice mixes—portioned and fast-prep for use in the Planit Pod appliance.

This is where innovation and endless possibilities live— where the Planit Protein platform also expands to include vegan cheeses, yogurts, bread proofing and beyond.

OUR CULTURE

Exclusive Starters

Our system utilizes proprietary fermentation cultures that have been optimized for consistency and maximized growth in the Planit Pod. Organic, protected, and made for scale, our quality cultures play a vital role in providing digestive health benefits and eliminating binding agents and fillers found in most foods.

Trust, consistency, and system-specific formulation are hallmarks of our cultures. In addition to a foundational Rhizopus oligosporus starter, we also offer a flexible, universal koji culture. More cultures are in development to broaden the system’s fermentation repertoire.

Best-in-Class Performance

Known world-wide for providing chefs and food service pros with solutions throughout their operations, Waring is also taking big steps to drive inspirational innovation.

The Planit Pod is not only the cornerstone of the Planit Protein System; it is a standout example of Waring's role as a leader in empowering chefs to create and drive new and better food experiences.
