Casein is the main protein in milk and cheese—it’s the reason that cheese tastes and feels the way it does. Can it be made with vegan ingredients?

Climax Foods claims to have developed a plant-based replica of the dairy protein casein, enabling stretchy, melty, flavorful textures without resorting to additives or starches. How did the company do it, and how disruptive is their discovery?
