About Steamed soya beans

Steamed soya beans, often referred to as edamame, are a popular snack or appetizer originating from East Asian cuisine, particularly Japan. These tender, green soybeans are typically served in their pods and lightly seasoned with salt. Packed with plant-based protein, steamed soya beans are an excellent source of essential amino acids, making them a staple for vegetarians and vegans. They are also rich in fiber, vitamins such as folate and vitamin K, and minerals like iron and magnesium. Additionally, soya beans contain heart-healthy unsaturated fats and isoflavones, which may support hormonal balance. However, their moderate calorie content and sodium from added seasoning should be considered for those monitoring their dietary intake. Easy to prepare and versatile, steamed soya beans make a nutritious, satisfying, and wholesome food option for various diets.
