Guest guest Posted July 10, 2002 Report Share Posted July 10, 2002 Hi Genie, I haven't had the chance to use canned soy beans yet. However, I do use organic canned white beans quite frequently and they usually have some sort of " goup " on them. So, I usually just empty the can out into a colander and rinse them. Good as new!

Guest guest Posted April 18, 2005 Report Share Posted April 18, 2005 I think we recently discussed Edamame (? sp??) which is fresh soybeans in the pod! You could look through the recent (the last month) posts to see what people suggested... =) most of us buy them at the store, but fresh from the field would be even better! =) wow Julie! you are going to make us all jealous!!! =) On Monday, April 18, 2005, at 10:34 AM, Julie J. wrote: > Well now that I am excited about all the new corn ideas... > > We also grow soy beans.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 Stop fishing and start cooking grains instead and let those little fish swin and enjoy. Just eat your roasted soy beans as a snack or make up some trail mix and add them. I like them on salads. Now go trash your fishing pole (:-) Donna Sent via BlackBerry from T-Mobile " mousa60 " <mousa60 Thu, 13 Mar 2008 15:25:20 SOY BEANS Hi Everybody. I am a newby so I am still in the process of trying new things.I got these roasted soy beans that were on sale now don't know how to use them. They look like peanuts and are hard like peanuts. Not to bad to just eat like that but think i would rather use in a recipe. I looked under beans and lagumes in the files but didn't find anything. I am enjoying the recipes that I am finding there. Better then getting a book and trying things out on my own. Like the feed backs on recipes.That really helps me when trying to find something new to try. About me...I am 69 years old and live on Lake Huron in Michiga. Love fishing and kayaking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 Hi Mousa, I basically enjoy them as a snack, something like the corn nuts. You can add some garlic powder to them. You fish?

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 Yes, I am a pescatarian. The more recipes I find that are good the more I will move away from eating fish. It all takes time. No magic wand here. Taking red meat away from the family was no easy task as I am sure some of you have faced. One step at a time.

Hi, My guess is the ROASTED soybeans are good as a snack, as something to add to a mix of other nuts, grain chips (various kinds). They are good with raisins, peanuts (if you can eat peanuts), sesame " sticks " , maybe small pretzels...like a " trail mix " . To use the roasted soy nuts in a " recipe " is a little harder. They might be good sprinkled over a salad of mixed greens and cut up raw veggies--carrot curls, slivers of bell pepper and maybe chunks of tofu or shredded cheese. My husband and I make salads like this all summer long--big plates of as many kinds of raw vegetables as we can find (or as many as I can chop up and pile on the bed of romaine or mixed lettuce! We love sprinkling chopped nuts and organic raisins over the top of the salad...Soy nuts on a salad sound good to me! There are other soy beans that you CAN use in recipes--more readily than the roasted ones. Get some DRY edible soybeans--they need to be soaked a LONG time, and cook them until they are tender. THOSE would go into any dish that uses a regular cooked bean, such as Navy beans, white kidney (Canelini), canary bean ( " Mayo Coba " ), or Great Northern beans...try them in some of the filed recipes on this site that call for other beans--it might be really good! You can also cook these dry soy beans (dry, not " roasted " ), and put them in a blender or food processor with seasonings, olive oil (or other oils) and make yourself a nice " bean dip " or bean spread to put on--toast...biscuits...grain chips...crackers....and so on. (The files have some recipes for " hummus " , which is basically a dip or spread made of cooked beans.) Ok, I've probably talked too long here! Look in the recipe files and see what's there. Oh, one more idea I just had: If the recipe calls for " edamame " , that's also soy beans--they are " green " (young) and they are edible, too. (Any recipe calling for green peas, baby lima beans or " fresh shelled " blackeyed peas might taste good with green soybeans substituted.) Hope that gives you some idea of what you can do with " Soy Beans " . If you eat soy beans, the protein is considered " complete " -- you don't need any meat to make it a " good " protein for your body! It's pretty healthy and--no cholesterol! Hope you learn to enjoy it's many forms and ways to use it! Sincerely, --Laura B. (also a newbie here.) Hope that gives you some Looking for last minute shopping deals? Find them fast with Search.

Guest guest Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 roasted soy beans are an excellent snack.. tasty addition to a salad ) the green kind or any other that might like a little crunch (like a grain salad or something) great for adding to trail mix jenni , " L.B.
