Soy Good

Three teams of Iowa State University students competed recently in the second annual “Soy You Think You Can Cook” culinary contest sponsored by the Soyfoods Council.

The students were competing to create dishes with recipes they had developed using soybean products like edamame, silken tofu and water pack tofu.

“It is fun to see such innovation and to taste the creative ways students have found for handling soy,” says Soyfoods Council Executive Director Linda Funk, who judged the competition. “It is good for Iowa to come up with such interesting and delicious soyfood dishes. The Soyfoods Council will use these recipes at events across the country and with soybean farmers.”
