Soy sprouts, the tender shoots of germinated soybeans, are a nutrient-dense addition to many dishes. Popular in Asian cuisine, particularly Korean, Chinese, and Japanese cooking, these sprouts boast a crisp texture and mild nutty flavor that enhances stir-fries, soups, salads, and sides. Nutritionally, soy sprouts are low in calories but rich in essential vitamins like folate, vitamin C, and certain B vitamins. They also provide dietary fiber, plant-based protein, and important minerals such as potassium and magnesium. Additionally, soy sprouts contain antioxidants that support immune health and may reduce inflammation. However, they are best consumed fresh and properly cooked to reduce the risk of contamination, as improper handling can lead to bacterial growth. Whether as a garnish or a main ingredient, soy sprouts bring versatility and health benefits to a variety of meals.
