Soy Flour

Soy flour is a fine, protein-rich flour made by grinding dried, roasted soybeans, most often after the natural oil has been removed to produce a defatted product similar to other soybean meal derived ingredients. It is used as a wheat flour substitute or supplement in baking and in gluten-free cooking, valued mainly for its high protein content compared with cereal flours. Soy flour sits alongside other soybean-derived staples such as defatted soybean meal, used as a protein source in animal feed, and textured vegetable protein, used as a meat substitute.
