Our take
CleanPlate reviewTraditional batter, with a protein upgrade.
iD's Protein-Rich batter adds an 8.5% blend of pea protein isolate, soy protein isolate and brown rice protein to the usual rice and urad dal.
CleanPlate scores it CA1. The C for nutrition reflects nearly three times the protein of standard batter. The A for ingredients reflects no additives at all. The 1 for risk is the best possible: very low fat, no sugar and modest sodium.
