This Man's Cook's Soybean Side Dish

Recipe 🍳

Cooking tips 💡

• Soaking beans in onion water softens their structure naturally through the onion’s organic acids and sugars, preventing hardness or skin separation even after cooling.
• Cooking the kelp pieces with the beans deepens the umami flavor and adds a unique chewy texture. If you dislike eating kelp, you can add whole pieces, cook them through, and remove before serving.
• Malt syrup or corn syrup should be thoroughly mixed and cooked down at the final stage with sugar to achieve a glossy sheen and balanced sweetness without cloying aftertaste.
