Soak soy beans in cold water in a pot/bowl for 8-12 hours. Use 3 times as much water as there is soy beans
Preheat oven to 350
Drain water then spread the beans evenly on a pan and pat dry.
I was able to make three batches from my 2 cups of soy beans. Once you have your dry beans portioned out place in a separate bowl.
Time to get creative! As a standard use 1Tbsp oil and 3 pinches of salt. Feel free to use any other spices after that, i would stay away from dry herbs, they get too toasted during the cooking process and not taste good.
Stir spice mix into soy beans, place on baking sheet and put in oven.
Bake for 20 minutes, take it out and stir around.
Place back in the oven and bake for 10 minutes. Take out and stir again
Place back in oven and bake for 5 minutes, and repeat this approximately 3 more times.
They should start to get toasty brown by this point and this is where it gets tricky. After your last cycle of 5 minutes in the oven, the beans may still be a little chewy -not too much, but a little chewy- take them out and let them cool. You don't want to over roast them and burn, but you don't want to under cook them because they are not as crunchy.
Enjoy!!
