Soya beans were once largely produced and consumed in the East, particularly in China and Japan. They helped to make up balanced diets because their rich protein content could be used as a substitute for meat, Today. soya bean production has spread to other countries and its popularity as a food item has also increased. In Malaysia, soya beans are processed in various ways to provide consumers a variety of nutritious food with different textures and taste like soya bean milk, soya bean curd, soya bean cake, bean sprouts, soya Sauce or salted soya beans. Soya beans also contain other nutrients besides protein, namely cil, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals. Soya bean products are a fairly good source of Vitamin B complex.

The liquid is strained to separate the crushed soya beans from the milk. ‘Then, the soya bean milk is boiled for about five minutes. Pandan leaves can be added to give it an aroma. Finally, sugar is added to the milk to sweeten it. 29 Soya bean plants ‘A. contain little nutrients B were first grown in Malaysia © alone make up balanced diets D___were widely grown in China and Japan [Lihat sebelah
