Combine Tosteds and fruit in a large bowl, and set aside. Combine cocoa and arrowroot in a small bowl and set aside. Place rice syrup in a glass liquid measuring cup and microwave for 25 seconds, or heat in a small saucepan over low heat for a minute.

Laura® Bean Recipes

Laura® beans are the perfect soybean to make soymilk and tofu at home. My father and I continue to receive compliments daily on how great tasting and how well the Laura bean works in all it's potential uses. You can easily make great tasting soymilk at home using the Laura Bean and your favorite Soy Milk Machine.

Or try some of these recipes for your Laura Beans!

Soy Coffee

1 cup soybeans (yields 3/4 cup ground or 6-12 cups soy coffee)


1. Soak the soybeans overnight


2. Preheat the oven to 300 F.


3. Spread the soaked soybeans out on a cookie sheet, one layer deep.


Bake in the oven until they are dark golden brown, but not burned. 
This takes about four hours. Use 1 or 2 scant tablespoon of the ground bean per cup of water. You can also simmer it gently for about 5 minutes. Do not boil or it will be bitter.

 

Fruit Smoothies

 

1   cup soy soymilk


1/2 medium banana


2   table spoon frozen fruit juice concentrate, undiluted


1/4 cup frozen fruit (optional)


Puree all the ingredients in a blender until smooth.
pour into a glass and serve at once.

 

Soymilk Bread

Yields: 2 loaves

2 1/2 cups soymilk


2     table spoons honey


1/4   cup soy oil


1     table active dry east


1/2   cup warm water


1/3   cup soy flour


2     cups white bread flour


5 (or more cups) whole wheat flour


2 1/2 tea spoon salt

 

Bring soymilk and honey almost to a boil. remove from heat, stir in oil, and let cool to Luke warm. Dissolve yeast in warm water and let sit about 5 minutes, until bubbles begin to form. Combine soy flour, white flour, 4 cups of the whole wheat flour and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add the yeast and soymilk mixtures and stir well. Add the remaining whole wheat flour as needed to make a soft dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured board and knead unit smooth and elastic, about 10 to 15 minutes. Put dough into a lightly oiled bowl. cover and let rise until double in bulk, about 2 hours. Punch down, shape into two loaves and let rise again in lightly oiled bread pans until dough reaches the top of the pan, about 45 minutes. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes at 350 degree until golden and bottom sounds hollow when tapped. Remove from pans to cool.

 

Baked Soybeans

 

1 Cup of Soybeans 

Rinse the beans. Soak the beans in 3 to 4 cups of water overnight. Bring beans to rolling boil and maintain for 10 to 12 minutes (can boil longer to make softer). Rinse beans again put into a baking dish with 1 cup of water (vary amount to your preference) then add brown sugar, molasses, mustard, barbecue sauce, onion, shot of ketchup and mix to taste. Put into oven with lid on for 45 minutes, take lid off and bake for another 30 to 45 minutes.

There you have it, baked Soybeans better than the stuff in the can at the store!

Chinese Noodle

This mildly spiced pasta is a quick and easy, and you can serve it hot or cold! If you like it spicier, add a little more hoisin sauce and some crushed red pepper when you dress the noodles.

1   tablespoon lower-sodium soy sauce


1   tablespoon rice vinegar


8   oz firm Tofu, in 1/2" cubes


8   oz angel hair pasta or thin spaghetti


2   tsp dark sesame oil


1   cup snow peas, in 1" pieces


1   cup small broccoli florets


1   cup carrots, in thin half rounds


1/2 cup onion, in thin half rounds


1   tablespoon sesame seed (optional garnish)

1. Make marinade: In a small bown whisk together the hoisin sauce, soy sauce and rice vinegar.  Reserve 2 tablespoon of the marinade; pour the rest over the Tofu and stir to coat.

2. Put the Tofu cubes on a nonstick baking sheet and bake at 350 degree for 20 minutes, turning once.  While the tofu bakes, prepare the pasta and vegetables, as follows.
3. Break the pasta in half and cook according to package directions. When done, drain the pasta and toss it with the sesame oil.  Add the reserved marinade and toss again.
4. Sauté the snow peas, broccoli, carrots and onion in a nonstick skillet (with a little water to prevent sticking) until crisp tender.  Add them along with the baked Tofu to the pasta and gently mix.  Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve hot or cold.

* Chinese hoisin sauce, a soybean-based cooking and dipping sauce, is available in Asian groceries and many supermarkets.
