Talked about soy beans and wanted a recipe for baked soybeans. Found this one at http://soyfoods.com/recipes
ROASTED SOY NUTS 11-25-00
Using soybeans that have been soaked 8 hours or more
Microwave method:
Use 1 cup of beans. Drain them
well. Spread the beans into a single layer in a 9" or 10" glass pie plate.
Microwave on high for 3 minutes. Stir, then cook 3 minutes more. After
that, cook for 1 minute at a time, stirring after each minute to ensure
even browning. The total time will vary depending on the moisture of the
bean and the wattage of the oven, but will probably take about 9 to 12
minutes. When the beans are beginning to get hard and golden, you may want
to cook for 30 second intervals to avoid burning them. They are done when
they are golden brown and crunchy.
Oven method:
Use up to 2 cups of beans per baking
sheet. Drain the beans, then spread into a single layer. Bake at 350°
F, stirring after 15 minutes, then stirring every 5 minutes until golden
brown and crunchy. The total time will vary depending on the moisture of
the beans, but should take about 25 minutes. Watch carefully when the beans
are getting close to done.
