Scelta Mushrooms is recognized internationally as a leader in developing and supplying mushroom products to the food industry, food service and retail. Its expertise covers a wide range of processed mushroom and vegetable products, from frozen and preserved to coated and extracted.

Scelta’s Mushroom Concentrate, a natural alternative to MSG
Scelta Mushrooms manufactures flavourings rich in umami using a ‘Waste2Taste’ process. Mushroom parts and residues from mushroom processing which normally go to waste – such as mushroom stems and cooking juice – are being used to produce concentrate in liquid and spray-dried powder form. It serves as a mushroom base for soups and sauces. It can also be used as a flavour enhancer for a variety of dishes without imparting a pronounced mushroom flavour. It is a 100% natural product with the potential to replace monosodium glutamate (MSG) and reduce the use of salt. The concentrate contains 95% of the healthy vitamins and minerals from the mushroom. Tasty and healthy, in other words.
Introducing Funginal Foods
The assortment recently has been extended with the products of Scelta Ceuticals. This new affiliate company develops products supporting the health of animals and humans at the level of the immune system. Scelta calls them funginal foods. These 100% natural products are based on wholesome fungi. An example is the Almond mushroom, which contains 1,3-1,6 beta glucans and Ergosterol. Beta glucans modulate the immune system, while Ergosterol is important for the absorption of calcium. Extensive research has demonstrated that these substances support and modulate the immune systems of humans and animals. A properly functioning immune system is of course very important for health; it protects us against harmful outside influences.
The funginal foods for humans can be ordered direct from: www.murill.com. Furthermore, the complete assortment of IQF frozen mushrooms and mung bean sprouts; (semi-) preserved mushrooms; breaded/coated mushroom, vegetable and onion products; mushroom flavourings; and Murill dietary supplements will be on display at stand 4J107.
