More About This Product
What Makes BeLeaf's Ribbon Fish Different
Plant-based seafood is a newer category than plant-based meat, and most entrants are built on soy, pea, or algae protein to approximate flaky fish texture. BeLeaf's Ribbon Fish uses a soy and wheat protein base (Non-GMO Textured Soybean Protein, Non-GMO Wheat Protein Concentrate, Non-GMO Soybean Oil), layered with soybean skin, seaweed, white pepper, and ginger powder — a combination chosen to reproduce the tender, flaky bite and savory, slightly marine flavor notes of traditional ribbon fish without sourcing from wild or farmed stock.
Per 1 single-serve (50g) serving: 50 calories, 4g protein, 3g fat, 135mg sodium. Contains soy and wheat/gluten. Free from dairy, egg, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, and peanuts. No cholesterol, no added MSG, no artificial flavors (seasoned with natural flavors), Non-GMO core ingredients.
Foodservice Specs & Ordering
BeLeaf Ribbon Fish ships as item V025, in 4 / 6.6 lb cases.
BeLeaf ribbon fish can be ordered through:
- US Foods Direct (online, FedEx-shipped) — available for operators who want to order without volume minimums, ideal for first-time buyers or smaller-volume kitchens.
- Broadline distribution — through the Dot Foods broadline distributor network for operators already working with Sysco, US Foods, PFG, or a regional distributor; contact BeLeaf directly for current distributor item codes in your account.
Product ships frozen and is not fully cooked — it's thawed in the refrigerator overnight, then browned in a pan with a small amount of oil for 2-3 minutes before service.
Cooking & Menu Applications
BeLeaf's Ribbon Fish is thawed overnight and pan-browned for 2-3 minutes, a quick step that fits most Asian-cuisine and seafood-forward prep lines:
- Asian entrees — stir-fries, braises, and rice-bowl toppings where flaky fish is traditionally used
- Soups & hot pot — as a plant-based fish addition to broths and shared-pot formats
- Small plates — pan-browned and served as an appetizer or shared plate
- Menu diversification — a sustainable, allergen-conscious seafood alternative for operators looking to expand plant-based entrees beyond land-protein mocks
Because it browns quickly in a standard sauté pan, it fits into an existing seafood or wok station without specialized equipment, giving operators a way to offer a plant-based seafood dish to vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian-adjacent, and flexitarian guests.
What is plant-based ribbon fish made from?
BeLeaf's Ribbon Fish is made from a Non-GMO textured soybean protein and wheat protein concentrate base, with soybean oil, sea salt, brown sugar, carrageenan, soybean skin, seaweed, white pepper, ginger powder, and natural flavors used to build its flaky texture and savory, marine-leaning flavor.
Where can restaurants buy plant-based ribbon fish wholesale?
Through US Foods Direct, an online ordering platform with no volume minimum, or through the Dot Foods broadline distributor network — contact BeLeaf directly for current distributor item codes and wholesale ordering.
Is plant-based ribbon fish gluten-free or soy-free?
No — BeLeaf's Ribbon Fish is made with a soy and wheat protein base and contains both allergens. It's free from dairy, egg, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, and peanuts, with no cholesterol or added MSG.
How do you cook plant-based ribbon fish for foodservice?
Thaw it in the refrigerator overnight, then heat a small amount of oil in a pan and brown it for 2-3 minutes — it's not fully cooked going in, so this browning step is required before plating.
What's the best plant-based seafood option for an Asian-cuisine menu?
A flaky, soy-and-wheat-based format like BeLeaf's Ribbon Fish is well suited to stir-fries, braises, and hot pot applications where traditional ribbon fish is already used — it browns in a standard pan in a few minutes without specialized seafood-prep equipment.
