Soya Beans? Cooking Suggestions?

Question

Well I recently tried some soya nuts but thought these were simply the same as soya beans.

So I went to the grocery store and bought plain soya beans by mistake. Now I'm stuck with a bunch of hard, nasty tasting soya beans and don't know what to do with them.

Any cooking suggestions? What can I use these beans for?

Answer 1

1 cup dried soya beans –> makes 1 cup roasted soya beans

Rinse and soak the beans for 5 to 6 hrs. If salty beans are desired, add salt to the soaking water.

Drain beans and dry them for 1 hr before roasting. Use towels or paper napkins to help soak up the water.

Transfer to unoiled baking trays in a layer 1-bean thick only.

Roast in slow oven of 100ºC-120ºC for 2 to 2.5 hrs or until beans are light brown. Check that the beans inside the lighter-coloured skins do not turn dark brown.

Shake the pans once every 15 mins for the first hour then every 30 mins.

Once done, remove the beans from the oven. They will still be soft, but will turn crunchy when cool.

Answer 2

How about spring rolls, use them in that.
