Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Soak the Soybeans

    Place 1 cup of soybeans in a large bowl and cover with 4 cups of water. Allow the soybeans to soak for at least 8 hours or overnight.

  2. 2

    Drain and Rinse

    After soaking, drain the soybeans in a colander and rinse them thoroughly under cold running water.

  3. 3

    Cook the Soybeans

    In a large pot, add the drained soybeans and enough fresh water to cover them by about 2 inches. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the soybeans are tender.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Flavoring

    While the soybeans are cooking, finely chop the garlic and slice the green onions. In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, olive oil, and salt.

  5. 5

    Combine Soybeans with Flavoring

    Once the soybeans are cooked and tender, drain any excess water. Add the garlic, soy sauce mixture, and green onions to the pot with the soybeans. Stir well to combine.

  6. 6

    Season

    Add black pepper to taste, stirring well to distribute the seasoning throughout the soybeans.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the seasoned soybeans warm as a side dish or over rice as a main dish. Enjoy!
