Soybeans

(Soybeans)  Soybeans are not generally sold in supermarkets, but they are available at health food stores and from co-ops.  Some of the most common uses of soybeans are in making textured vegetable protein (TVP), soy milk, and tofu.  Soybeans have been grown in China for over 3,000 years, but are now grown in many parts of the world.  Soybeans must be cooked in order for the protein to be digested.  See our nutritional charts for raw and cooked soybeans.

Soybeans, mature seeds, raw
