Ourhome Designated 'Yeonhwa-style Seasoned Meat 3 Types' as Senior-friendly Excellent Food

[Asia Economy Reporter Eunmo Koo] Ourhome announced on the 1st that its premium food ingredient brand 'Careplus' has had its 'Softened Marinated Meat 3 Types' designated as senior-friendly excellent food products by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs and the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries.

The products selected as senior-friendly excellent foods are ▲ Careplus Soft Soy Sauce Pork Bulgogi ▲ Careplus Soft Soy Sauce Beef Bulgogi ▲ Careplus Soft Pork Gochujang Bulgogi, totaling three types.

Careplus softened marinated meat is designed with multifaceted considerations including low hardness, ease of digestion, taste, and nutrition, making it suitable not only for the elderly but also for children, patients, and general consumers who prefer soft foods. Ourhome's unique enzyme application and physical softening technology make it over 30% softer and easier to digest than regular meat. The low-temperature processing preserves nutrition as well as the meat's original taste, aroma, and color.

Ourhome Research & Development (R&D) Institute developed enzyme-based meat softening technology and applied it to the three types of softened marinated meat. The protease enzyme is penetrated into the meat using a vacuum method to adjust the texture softly. Additionally, the meat blend ratio was adjusted to provide necessary nutrients such as protein for the elderly. The products are easy to store and convenient to cook, allowing anyone to enjoy them easily, and are currently distributed to nursing and welfare facilities, hospitals, and daycare centers.

An Ourhome official said, “As we enter a super-aged society and the senior-friendly food industry is rapidly emerging, we are pleased that our products have been recognized for their excellence. We will continue to lead the care food market based on our industry-leading softening technology and related expertise.”
