Description : Soybeans are produced in large amounts around the world. In Asian countries, soybeans have been used mostly as a source of food, and in Western countries, they have been used as animal feed and in non-food products. However, since scientific evidence of the dietary benefits of soybeans has been published, the use of soybeans as a food ingredient has increased. In Asia, soybeans have been used in various ways on their own and also combined with fermented products to be used as seasonings or side dishes.
