Soybean Sprouts

Soybean Sprouts are the young, tender shoots of soaked and germinated soybeans commonly used in Korean (kongnamul), East Asian and Southeast Asian cuisines as a side, salad ingredient or stir-fry component. They are crisp and mildly nutty, often blanched or quickly stir-fried and seasoned. Nutrition-wise, Soybean Sprouts are very low in calories while contributing plant-based protein, fiber and a range of vitamins and minerals — notably providing about 170µg DFE of folate per 100 g — plus small amounts of healthy fats and trace minerals like copper. Their light nutrient density makes them a good way to bulk up dishes without many calories. From a health perspective, soybean sprouts are an unprocessed whole food that supplies quality plant protein and fiber and has a favorable fat profile; they also contain modest antioxidant compounds. They work well as a nutritious, low-calorie vegetable to add volume and micronutrients to meals.Read more
