The Lupin Co Lupin Flakes originate from Australian Sweet Lupin (ASL) seed (Lupinus Angustifolius) and are a Legume selected specifically for the low alkaloids (low bitterness/bean/green flavour). Approx 95% of all sweet lupin is grown in Australia and of this over 85% is grown in Western Australia (WA). Classic breeding comes from Mediterranean varieties which were introduced to WA during the early 1960’s. Our lupins are harvested from the above-ground pods formed on the plant, cleaned and sized on farm, followed by careful removal of the outer husk (lupin hull) which is mainly hemi-cellulose fibre. Then follows a triple colour analysis to make sure we have only the beautiful golden lupin endosperm. A multiple dry size reduction process then follows with the final step being to produce delicate and versatile flakes. The process is all done at a temperature not exceeding 36C, measured throughout the process by laser thermometers. Lupin Flakes pack a seriously tasty powerful punch.
