Omurice is a popular Japanese comfort food —<\/span> a chicken and vegetable fried rice flavored with ketchup and wrapped in an omelet, often served with demi-glace sauce or ketchup on top. It is an example of Western-influenced Japanese cuisine that has fans of all ages from all over the world.<\/p>\n

TWO and Kagome co-developed “Ever Egg” using vegetables such as carrots and cannellini beans, also known as white kidney beans, as the main ingredient instead of the more commonly used soybeans. By implementing a proprietary technology called “the vegetable semi-ripening method” (patent pending), “Ever Egg” is able to achieve the soft, fluffy texture similar to omelets made from real eggs. The demi-glace sauce and the chicken fried rice in “2foods Plant-Based Omurice” are also made entirely plant-based.<\/p>\n

“2foods Plant-Based Omurice” will be available for pre-order on “Makuake” starting March 9th<\/span>, 2022. Makuake is Japan’s<\/span> top product launch platform where consumers come to pre-order and support the newest and most innovative creations. It is frequently used even by the largest corporations to introduce their new products to the market. <\/p>\n

Through Makuake, TWO and Kagome aim to lead, and accelerate, the growth of the plant-based foods market in Japan<\/span>. “2foods Plant-Based Omurice” will be offered as part of the menu at all six 2foods cafe\/restaurant locations, and will be made available across more channels before the end of the year. The two companies will continue to work together in bringing innovative plant-based products to consumers around the world.<\/p>\n
