How to Cook Soybeans

Conventional Method
Soak soybeans overnight, covered with water. Drain water. In a large pan filled with six to eight cups of water, cook soybeans for approximately two hours on low heat. Drain well, rinse and cool.  One cup dried soybeans will expand to about 3 cups.

Microwave Method
Place the soybeans and water in a microwaveable container and cover tightly. Microwave on High for 10 minutes or until the water is hot. Cook for approximately two hours on 20 percent power, stirring every 15 to 20 minutes. Drain well, rinse and cool. One cup dried soybeans will expand to about 3 cups.
