Basics: Ingredients & Equipment

Plant protein sources in comparison

When making your own protein powder It's all about combining different plant-based protein sources sensibly. The amino acid profile—that is, how balanced the protein building blocks are—is important.

  • Lentil protein : Good base, high protein content (approx. 26 g/100 g), easily available.
  • Chickpeas : Mild in taste, filling, approx. 20 g protein/100 g.
  • Hemp seeds : Contain all nine essential amino acids, approx. 31 g/100 g.
  • Sunflower seeds : High in protein (approx. 21 g/100 g), inexpensive source.
  • Rice protein : Very well tolerated, neutral taste.
  • Pea protein : High in protein, a good complement to rice.

Optimization of the amino acid profile

For a complete amino acid profile, combinations such as:

  • Rice + peas
  • Hemp seeds + lentils
  • Sunflower seeds + chickpeas + flax seeds

This covers both the essential amino acids lysine (often underrepresented in cereals) and methionine (less present in legumes).

Necessary kitchen appliances

  • High-performance blender or grinder attachment
  • Sieve or flour sieve (for fine consistency)
  • Storage jars or cans (airtight)
  • Fine kitchen scales (optional, for nutritional control)
