SOY BEANS,

People This Year Who Have
Some of These Beans Are
Fortunate
SOYS COMPARED WITH MEAT
How To Prepare Them for the Table
To Get Most Out of Them and To
Make Them Most Palatable--Soy
Beans Cheap as Food.

(By Carl Vrooman, Assistant Secre-
tary, u. s. Department of Agriculture.l
Among the simple, nutritious, and in
expensive foods which should be listed
on every housekeeper's program of
home preparedness is the soy bean. AS
forage crop in the United States
these beans are we'll known, but as yet
the soy bean, which is utilized widely
in Japan, China, and India, for human
food, has not yet been used to any
great extent for that purpose.
When soy beans sells for 15c quart,
10c worth will supply over five ounces.
of protein. When beef of average COM
position sells for zoe pound. 10c
worth will supply little over an ounce
of protein. Soy beans contain $500
protein, 1870 fat, and $3.50 carlo.
hydrates, as against 24.69o protein, 10
fat, and 500 carbohydrates in navy
beans.
Soy beans contain more fat than
starch. Next to peanuts, they contain
more fat than any other legumes. They
contain more protein than any other
vegetable. This not only makes them
fatty food, but it makes it possible
to cook them without the addition of
pork or other fat Soy beans can be
used in almost exactly the same way
as the ordinary navy beans.
To prepare baked soy beans, soak
the beans over night in cold water;
in the morning add pinch of soda and
boil the beans in the water in which
they we're soaked. Pour off the water
and use il for making soup. Put the
beans in a baking dish, add two level
teaspoonsful of salt, cover them with
water, cover the dish, and bake six to
eight hours, leaving the dish uncover1
ed during the last hour. 1t is unneces-
sary to flavor them with molasses, as
their natural flavor is delicious.
Since the soy bean contains little
starch, the liquid inA which they are
cooked is not thickened, and the beans
remain separate. IF this is considered
Objectionable the liquid can be thick.
ened with corn meal--one-third of q
cup to quart of beans
The skins of the soy beans can be
removed by boiling the beans for 10
minutes and allowing them, to cool
over night in the same water and then
rubbing between the hands. Most per,
sons prefer the beans without the
skins. They have a more delicate
flavor and probably are more easily
digested when thus prepared.
