Why we cook

Our story

EATTT was born from a simple idea shared by three chefs and a filmmaker (or food-systems obsessed filmmaker): that food can be more delicious, more honest and more useful to the people who make it. By harnessing solid-state fermentation (we call it « SSF ») of plants, grains and legumes, we create natural culinary bases that bring depth, umami and balance to professional kitchens, without unnecessary additives, artificial shortcuts or ultra-processed solutions.

Designed for today’s kitchens, our products help reduce prep time, labour pressure and energy-intensive cooking, while making « culinarity at scale » easier to achieve. Simple and cost-efficient to use, consistent and full of real taste, EATTT gives culinary teams the depth of slow cooking without the complexity, helping more kitchens serve food that tastes like it was cooked with care.

The industry gap

The food system has become incredibly good at making food available, consistent and efficient and we will always need that strength.

But somewhere along the way, too many kitchens and food production environments have had to choose between scale and real culinary depth.

Chefs, producers and food teams are under pressure to deliver better food, faster, cleaner and more responsibly, often with less time, less skilled labour and fewer acceptable shortcuts.

We believe the next step is to help food move forward: bringing real cooking logic, fermentation and honest plant-based ingredients into systems that can feed more people, while keeping taste, transparency and culinarity at the heart of it.

How we are buildingthe alternative

Instead of seeing legumes only as a source of feed, we see them as a powerful foundation for better food. Through fermentation and careful culinary development, we transform simple ingredients into natural solutions that bring depth, richness and satisfaction to plant-based cooking.

For too long, industrial alternatives have often relied on additives, artificial flavours or complex formulas to recreate taste. Our approach is different: we work with real ingredients, real processes and a clear commitment to transparency — creating products we would be proud to serve in our own kitchens.
