About Dehydrated soya

Dehydrated soya, also known as soya chunks or soya granules, is a protein-rich food made from defatted soy flour, a byproduct of extracting soybean oil. Predominantly used in Asian and Indian cuisines, this versatile ingredient serves as a meat substitute in vegetarian dishes due to its texture and ability to absorb flavors. It is highly valued for its nutritional profile, offering a complete protein source with all essential amino acids, making it ideal for muscle building and maintenance. Additionally, it's low in fat and cholesterol, supporting heart health. Soya also contains dietary fiber, iron, calcium, and isoflavones, which may promote bone strength and hormonal balance. However, excessive consumption might not be suitable for individuals sensitive to phytoestrogens or with thyroid concerns. With its quick preparation and adaptability, dehydrated soya is a convenient, health-conscious choice for modern cooking.
