Talked about soy beans and wanted a recipe for baked soybeans. Found this one at http://soyfoods.com/recipes
Roasted Soy Nuts 11-25-00
Using soybeans that have been soaked 8 hours or more...
Microwave method:
Use 1 cup of beans. Drain them
well. Spread the beans into a single layer in a 9" or 10" glass pie
plate. Microwave on high for 3
minutes. Stir, then cook 3 minutes more. After that, cook for 1
minute at a time, stirring after
each minute to ensure even browning. The total time will vary
depending on the moisture of the
bean and the wattage of the oven, but will probably take about
9 to 12 minutes. When the beans
are beginning to get hard and golden, you may want to cook for 30 second
intervals to avoid burning them. They are done when they are golden brown
and crunchy.
Oven method:
Use up to 2 cups of beans per baking
sheet. Drain the beans, then spread into a single layer. Bake
at 350° F, stirring after 15
minutes, then stirring every 5 minutes until golden brown and crunchy.
The total time will vary depending
on the moisture of the beans, but should take about 25 minutes.
Watch carefully when the beans
are getting close to done.
Yield: 1/2 cup nuts from 1 cup beans.
