Taking a Major Stand Against Food Waste
Tofu production in Switzerland results in over 100 tons of okara per month. About the same amount of okara results from soy milk production. All too frequently, okara ends up being fed to animals, tilled into the ground on farms, used to create biogas—even disposed of at incineration plants!
As an ecologically, economically and ethically minded person, I am appalled by this type of food waste. Okara contains almost three times as much protein as potatoes, next to no carbohydrates, mainly polyunsaturated fatty acids and is very rich in cellulose. These characteristics alone should be enough to make us view it as a food product, not as waste.
Okara cannot yet be found at major distributors, but there are several health food stores that have it available.
Okara has no taste of its own, which makes it a very versatile ingredient. That is what I hope to demonstrate in this cookbook. It makes just as much sense to add it to breakfast dishes like pancakes, porridge or okara-based granola as it does to use it for soups, salads, deserts or baking.
I hope that you, dear readers, have a great deal of fun with my creations. Bon appetit!
Sincerely, Bruno Wüthrich
