We've partnered with Kikkoman to find the most surprising ways to use soy in your everyday meals.
The humble soy bean is the root of so many ingredients. We have the original, vegetal form: edamame. The solids: tofu, seitan, tempeh. Liquids: soy milk, soy sauce, miso. And when paired with other ingredients, the possibilities when cooking, and yes, baking, with soy are bountiful and quite surprising. So let’s explore, shall we? Here are some hints towards soy’s limitless capabilities -- a cashew, tofu, and cardamom fudge; miso caramel. Are you intrigued?
