Soynut Butter

[JM]

I'm looking for a recipe using whole soy nuts. Does anyone on this forum have one?

Thanks.

Hi JM - We've had a go at making butter from other nuts but haven't tried soy. By the look of the following which I found on the net, the process seems pretty generic irrespective of the nut used.

Soy nut butter is made from roasted whole soy nuts, which are crushed and blended with soy oil. The butter can be used in place of peanut butter.

Hope this helps
Ed

BTW - the nuts would need to be soaked in water prior to roasting.

I didn't even know soy plants produced nuts! : Did this happen before or after the Fall? :-D

Don't tell us that soy plants produce beans. It will only mess up my analogy!!! 8-)

Did you know?

A coffee bean is the seed of the coffee plant....

Coffee beans are botanically not beans. The name derives from Arabic language ( قهوة‎ qahwa - "coffee" and bunn - "berry") and is a Folk etymology and loan translation.

Is a bean a seed? ;-)

Let me ask a question that I have had a problem with, and therefore have never liked eating them. Is a greenbean a green bean? :D

A bean may be a seed, but a seed may not be a bean. Botanists say it (the coffee 'bean') technically is not a bean, so who am I do argue with a Botanist? I WILL gladly argue with a satanist though. :-D

What!?!? :

:-D <--- is that green smiley really green? If a tree falls in the forest... ;-)

I made some the other day, it smells like peanut butter and tastes what I would think peanut butter would taste like.

I always have soynuts in the house, all different kinds, so I dumped some plain into the blender with a little water and vegie oil. A min. latter soynut butter!

Jason, was it unsalted and without any sugar?

Yes it was. It tasted ok, but it was my first try without directions...just winged it.

This thread first intrigued me because I love recipes.

Then, it gave me a headache with all that bean, nut, and seed talk.

Then, I blushed and laughed out loud. : :-D

Jason, soy nuts are also good in basil pesto. For your butter, Vic's right, add some sea salt and honey...and for me, whip it just a bit. The Lord bless you, all of you sillies.

Hey! I'm Italian; anything other than pine nuts is sacrilegious! :silly:

I don't believe a peanut is a nut either.

Not Really a Nut

Peanuts aren't really nuts at all - they're legumes like beans and peas and grow under the ground
Peanut Corp. of Australia

Now we have a bean that's not really a bean but a seed... and a nut that's not really a nut but a bean! What is this world coming to!?!
