Method

Preparation

1

Soaking the Soybeans

Rinse 1 cup of dried soybeans under cold water to remove any dust or impurities. Place the soybeans in a large bowl and cover them with 4 cups of water. Allow the soybeans to soak overnight or for at least 8 hours.

2

Cooking the Soybeans

After the soaking time, drain the soybeans and rinse them again. In a large pot, add the soaked soybeans along with fresh water (enough to cover the beans). Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 1 hour or until the soybeans are tender.

3

Seasoning the Beans

Once the soybeans are tender, add 1 tsp of salt, 2 tbs of soy sauce, minced garlic, and black pepper. Stir well and allow to simmer for an additional 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.

Serving

4

Garnishing

If desired, garnish with chili flakes, sesame seeds, and sliced green onions. Drizzle with olive oil before serving.

5

Serving

Serve the seasoned soybeans warm as a side dish or as a main protein source in a salad or grain bowl.
