Tempeh Chips FAQs

Yes. Our Tempeh Chips are Halal by JAKIM.

Our Tempeh Chips contain soy.

Tempeh chips are also known as tempe chips or kerepek tempe. In Malaysia, kerepek tempe usually means thin slices of ready-made tempeh that are fried. Ours are a different style: soybeans and gluten-free flour are fermented together, then sliced thin and fried. That's what gives our chips their light crunch and the white areas you see on every chip.

Our Tempeh Chips are made in our own manufacturing facility in Kajang, Selangor, run by our sister company LE Industries, from preparing the beans and fermentation to seasoning and packing. Manufactured in a FSSC:22000 FSMS certified facility.

Rhizopus oligosporus is the starter used to make tempeh, a fungus from the Mucoraceae family. As it grows and ferments the soybeans, it binds them together into a firm cake. During fermentation it feeds on the soybeans, making them much more digestible and allowing our bodies to absorb more nutrients from them.

The white areas between the beans are Rhizopus oligosporus growing on the soybeans and gluten-free flour. Put simply, both the beans and the flour are its food source.

No. This style of tempeh chip, with the white areas, originated in Indonesia, although we haven't been able to trace the exact city. Our founder first came across them in 2018, and the earliest we've been able to trace them is 2017. Hear more of our story on BFM 89.9's Open For Business and in our BFM 财今 (Cai Jin) interview.
