Dried soybeans need to be soaked for 12 hours.

Soybeans are annual herbs of the Fabaceae family. They contain a large amount of nutrients and are generally dried products. Therefore, they need to be soaked before consumption, but the soaking time should not be too long, usually within 15 hours. It is better, as too long time can easily cause soybeans to deteriorate.

It has a cultivation history of 5,000 years. It was called Shu in ancient times and is mainly produced in Northeast China. It is a crop whose seeds are rich in plant protein.
