Soy Nuts vs. Edamame

Did you know that soy nuts and edamame are related? That’s right! Edamame and soy nuts are both beans from a soy plant. However, edamame are the green soybeans that are not yet mature. They are easy to east straight out of their pod.

On the other hand, soy nuts are matured, dried, and roasted edamame. That is why they are not green, like edamame. Both have a light soy flavor while soy nuts are nutty and roasted.

How to Make Soy Nut Butter

Place the nuts in a high-powered blender or food processor.

Blend on high for 4-5 minutes, stopping the machine to cool down and to also scrape the sides down with a spatula a few times.

Continue blending in 4 to 5-minute increments until you have a nut butter consistency. The amount of time will depend on your machine, but it may take up to 20 minutes.

Once blended and smooth, store in an airtight jar for up to 1 month.

Use for soy nut butter and jelly sandwiches, in cookie recipes, parfaits, or swap in any of your favorite peanut butter recipes.

A blender such as a Vitamix will work best for making homemade nut butter recipes. However, any high-powered blender will do. Adjust your blending time as necessary for your machine.
