SOYQUICK Soy Milk Maker - OKARA Recipes

Open-faced Okara and Tuna Salad Sandwich

Okara
Okara is a deliciously nutritious remnant of soymilk making with your SoyQuick Automatic Soymilk Maker. Many people don't realize that the pulp that is left behind after grinding the soybeans is a highly nutritious product that contains plenty of soluble and insoluble fibre as well as a modest amount of protein.

Since the okara produced with your soymilk maker is already cooked, you can use it immediately in your favourite recipe, or freeze it for later use. It will keep 2 or 3 days in the refrigerator, or up to 4 or 5 months in the freezer.

Okara, like tofu, has little flavour on its own; however, here are just a few of the ways you can give okara delicious flavour.

OPEN-FACED OKARA AND TUNA SALAD SANDWICH

Ingredients

1/2 cup of soft okara
1 can (200g / 7 oz) can of tuna packed in water
4-5 Tbs mayonnaise (light is healthier)
1 Tbs Dijon style mustard
1 Tbs lemon juice
1/2 tsp salt
A few grinds of black pepper
2 Tbs. finely chopped green onion
Dash of sweet paprika
Lettuce leaves
6 slices of toast

Method
Mix together the soft okara, drained and mashed up tuna, mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, salt, pepper and 1 Tbs. of the green onion until smooth. Place the lettuce leaves on the toast, a heaping tablespoon of the tuna-okara mixture on top, and sprinkle each with a little paprika and the remaining green onion.
