familiar with soybeans?

[Jeanne G]

I don't know if there's anyone out there who can help, but here goes:

I've searched - even for soybeans over the internet - and not found much on suggestions for preparing soybeans(besides tofu recipes). I do love them boiled and shucked and eating them like that or thrown into a green salad. The only two other recipes I've found are (1)in mac n cheese and (2)with a vinagrette. I think I found those on epicurious.

Is there anyone out there who can make ANY other suggestions for the BEANS themselves? My sister introduced me to them and this year I even grew them but really don't have any other "recipes" for the beans.

You'd think, living in Ohio(because I know they're grown 1 hour north) I'd know more people using them. But I don't. Any suggestions?

Thanks! http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/smile.gif

Jeanne G, here are a few sites that have soybean recipes:

Ohio Soybean Board (yay for Ohio!) www.soyohio.org (http://www.soyohio.org)

Indiana Soyfoods (scroll to the bottom of the page for the soybean recipes) www.soyfoods.com/recipes/index.html (http://www.soyfoods.com/recipes/index.html)

Vegetarian.about.com - go to the "soy" page, or do a search for "soybeans," which will yield about 200 hits: http://vegetarian.about.com

Hope this helps!

Phoebe,
What a GREAT help that is. I have been on the soyohio site, but didn't find much w/ beans specifically, however since you suggested it, I tried it again. And did find soybeans in chocolate chip cookies! http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/smile.gif That made me smile.

And both the Indiana site and the vegetarian one had interesting recipes. Thanks so much for the input. I wasn't sure if there was anyone out there who could help. I'll tell my sister Connie you helped, she already said some nice things about you!! http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/wink.gif
