Okara (food)

Okara is a type of food that comes from soybeans. When we eat soybeans, we usually just eat the inside, which is called the soybean kernel. But when we make things like soy milk or tofu, we have to squeeze out the liquid from the soybeans. When we do this, what's left behind is something called okara.

Okara is a very healthy food because it has a lot of fiber and protein, which helps us grow big and strong. It's also great for the environment because it's made from a part of the soybean that would normally go to waste.

Okara can be used in a lot of different ways in cooking. Some people make burgers or meatballs with it, while others use it in baked goods like muffins and bread. You can even add it to smoothies to make them more filling and nutritious.

So even though okara might be a new food to you, it's definitely worth trying because it's healthy, environmentally friendly, and has a lot of delicious uses in the kitchen!
