I mentioned before the fact that okara is, the truth of making soy-milk, the ever-present reality…the more soymilk you make the more okara you have; the okara becomes a task requiring prompt attention. Granola has been a repeating theme, I will reiterate, it’s the single-most, easiest, most enthusiastically received use that I’ve come up with so far. You don’t even have to press the okara, just use it straight out of the soy-milk machine.
One okara use that gets mentioned alot is the patty or “burger” and so last night we gave it a try. Grated parsnips, carrots, chopped onion, chopped leek and a little garlic were sauteed and mixed with okara and a little flour. This was made into patties and breaded, then fried but only a few were cooked before I decided to add an egg to the mixture. The mixture plus egg held together well, these could be served without falling apart in transfer to plate.
What can I say? The flavor was great. The texture? Really not bad but not what I wanted in a patty. More vegetables and some cooked brown rice would have fleshed them out nicely, maybe a little nut meal…
