High quality soyabeans
Like other beans, the soya bean (Glycine max) grows in pods enclosing edible seeds. They are usually green but can be
yellow, brown or black. The texture is so adaptable that soya beans are frequently processed into a variety of foods.
Soya beans – also known as edamame beans when eaten fresh from the pod – are consumed as an alternative to meat. They
are the basis of soya milk, tofu, miso, tempeh and soya protein.
Origins
The soya bean plant is native to China, where it has been cultivated for well over 13,000 years. It was an essential
crop for the ancient Chinese who regarded it a necessity for life. Soya beans were introduced into other regions of
Asia centuries later and it wasn’t until the early 20th century that it began to be used for more than animal feed in
the West. The soya bean is now the most widely grown and utilised legume worldwide.
Since the 1970s there has been a marked increase in the consumption of traditional soya foods and the development
of other soya foods which simulate traditional meat and dairy products such as soya milk, soya sausages, soya cheese
and soya yogurts.
