What's Soya?

Hi all, kind of busy week this weekend. Christmas is just there but works never done. :-) I read an article of cooking menu with soy as ingredient and felt "let's share something about soya". Some might pronounce it as soy or "soya" but I prefer "soya".  It is a good source of protein that will not provide too high calories, plant derived, so is free from cholesterol. It can be a good milk substitution for those people who suffer from cow’s milk allergy (I posted this topic previously) and lactose intolerance as soy milk is not dairy products. Awesome right? Soya is lactose-free, and some-more a “complete protein” which contains all 9 essential amino acids in the right balance to meet your body’s needs. This makes soya a great substitute for many meats, allowing you to eliminate more saturated fat and cholesterol from your diet. If you feel interest with soya's nutritious benefits, quickly grab a cook book to learn soya related food!


黄豆又名大豆，有人会说它含有如牛奶般丰富的蛋白质但不会对身体造成负担的高热量，而且其天然植物蛋白质没有胆固醇。它也可以代替牛奶，让那些对牛奶有敏感或乳糖不适，因为豆奶不是乳制品。这些说法都对。黄豆是不含乳糖，其植物蛋白质含有我们人体所需的九种氨基酸。它可以代替肉类在我们的食谱里，让我们可以减少摄取过多的饱和脂肪和胆固醇。
