Eden Organic Black Soybeans
What it is
Eden Organic Black Soybeans are whole, mature soybeans that have been cooked and are ready to eat. The beans are packed in water and a touch of sea salt. They are certified organic, meaning they are grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. This product offers a convenient way to add legumes to your diet.
How people cook with it
These versatile beans can be incorporated into a variety of dishes, from salads to main courses. They provide a satisfying texture and a mild, earthy flavor.
- Added to salads
- Mixed into grain bowls
- Used in chili
- Blended into dips
Before using, drain and rinse the black soybeans thoroughly under cool water. This helps to remove any excess liquid and salt. They can be added directly to cold dishes like salads, or heated through in soups, stews, or casseroles. For a quick side dish, sauté them with garlic and herbs. They also work well when mashed or pureed for spreads and dips. Their firm texture holds up well during cooking.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to other types of beans, black soybeans have a slightly firmer texture and a less starchy consistency. Their deep color also makes them visually appealing in dishes. They are a good alternative for those seeking a legume with a unique mouthfeel and a rich, dark hue.
How to keep the rest
After opening, transfer any unused black soybeans to a clean, airtight container. Refrigerate and use within 3 to 4 days. Do not freeze the product in its original can. Ensure the remaining beans are kept moist.
