Built For People
Who Read Labels.

✓ Fermented in Bangalore
✓ Under 5 ingredients
✓ 17g protein per 100g
✓ No additives

Tempeh Bites started as a request from Tribe members who wanted the protein of fresh tempeh but the convenience of a snack. So we took our standard fermented slabs, cut them small, marinated them in four different profiles, and dehydrated them. The snack we wished existed.

17g protein per 100g. Under 5 ingredients. Zero preservatives. The label reads like a shopping list, not a chemistry textbook.

The Ingredient Test

Our label. Theirs. You decide.

What's in a Tempeh Bite
01
Fermented Legume
Chickpea or soybean, depending on the variant. Fermented for 72 hours with Rhizopus culture. This is the whole product — protein source, probiotic, flavour, everything.
Live cultures
02
Chilli Flakes or Cumin
Spiced variants only. The chilli or cumin ferments alongside the legume — Rhizopus grows through both together. The spice isn't a coating or a dusting. It becomes part of the fermented whole.
Spiced variants only
That's it.
Raw variants: 1 ingredient. Spiced variants: 2. No salt, no seasoning, no coating, no preservatives, no enhancers. The flavour is the fermentation.
2 ingredients max

"Finally a snack I don't have to feel weird about"

"I've been reading protein bar labels for years and always felt a bit gross about what I was eating. Three ingredients, 17g protein — this is what I was looking for."

Got Questions?

Frequently Asked

Two bases, two flavour profiles. Chickpea bites are lighter — clean, nutty, and subtle. Soy bites are denser with a deep, natural umami that comes from soy's high glutamic acid content releasing during fermentation. It's the same compound behind miso, parmesan, and soy sauce. Both are fermented identically — it comes down to whether you want subtle or bold. If you're new, start with Chickpea Raw. If you want depth, go Soy Raw.
Yes — and this is what makes them unusual. Dehydration at low temperature preserves the Rhizopus culture without killing it. The organisms go dormant, not dead. When you eat them dry, the cultures are still viable. When you rehydrate in warm (not boiling) water, they come back to life. To keep the probiotic benefit intact, avoid high heat — add after cooking or eat cold.
Both. Eat dry straight from the pack — crunchy, high-protein, live cultures intact. Or rehydrate in warm water for 5–10 minutes and they soften beautifully for sabzis, stir-fries, pasta, rice bowls, scrambles, and more. The only rule: if you want the probiotic benefit, don't boil them. Add after cooking, or eat cold.
Yes. Raw variants have one: the fermented legume — chickpea or soybean, transformed over 72 hours by Rhizopus culture. Spiced variants have two: the legume and the spice, but here's what's remarkable — the chilli or cumin doesn't get sprinkled on top. It ferments alongside the legume. The Rhizopus culture grows through both together, making the spice part of the fermented organism itself. No salt, no coating, no preservatives, no flavour enhancers. The flavour is the fermentation.
Chickpea Raw. It's the most approachable — light, nutty, mildly fermented, and easy to pair with anything. If you like it, try Soy Raw next for a deeper, more savoury experience. Chickpea Chilli and Soy Cumin are the spiced versions — same bases, just with more personality straight from the pack.
Dehydrated tempeh bites keep significantly longer than our fresh or cooked products. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, consume within 10–14 days for best flavour and texture. The best-before date on the pack is for the sealed product — check it on your batch.
Fresh tempeh is the raw slab — uncooked, unprocessed, for you to marinate and prepare yourself. Sambal Tempeh is slow-cooked in sambal, ready to eat straight from the pack. Tempeh Bites are dehydrated after fermentation — the most portable and versatile format. They go anywhere, store the longest, and work in the most different kinds of meals. Same fermentation, three different expressions.
