Ch 1 · The building blocks of faux fish
sonia 3D Printed Salmon Filet
Print the mycelium, / layer up the fat, / salmon made of fungi!
sonia Microalgae oil is blended into the fat layers of the printed fish to deliver healthy omega-3 fatty acids.
sonia Natural plant extracts and beta-carotene give printed salmon its signature bright orange hue.
BETA
sonia Stack the plant layers to discover how 3D printers build realistic faux salmon.
Fun Fact
Algae power: The omega-3 fats in 3D printed salmon come directly from microalgae, cutting out the middle-fish entirely.
Glossary
mycoprotein (noun)
A protein-rich food substance of fungal origin. In 2023, Austrian startup Revo Foods utilized this ingredient to 3D-print their plant-based salmon fillets.
