Soybeans, but meat? I bought the ingredients of "gapao rice" and "taco rice" developed from Marukome's brand "Soybean Lab".


"Soybean Lab" is a brand that develops processed soybean products that can be used as substitutes for meat and flour. By using it in various dishes, you can easily take in the nutrition of soybeans. The ingredients of "Gapao Rice" and "Taco Rice" that I purchased this time are a set of "soybean meat" and seasonings that have a texture similar to meat. Even beginners of ethnic cooking can rest assured that it can be done simply by stir-frying the vegetables prepared separately.








By the way, when I try to eat the finished Gapao rice ... The savory soybean meat has a light taste like chicken soboro. The texture is a little squishy compared to real meat, but thanks to the delicious sauce, it doesn't bother me at all. If you don't say anything, you won't notice that it's actually made of soybeans! The seasoning is strong, so the satisfaction after eating is sufficient.


For 2 to 3 servings each, the selling price at the supermarket I went to was 298 yen for "Gapao Rice" (excluding tax, the same applies below) and 358 yen for "Taco Rice". Other side dish ingredients include "bon bon chicken," "fried black vinegar," "keema curry," "twice-cooked meat," "fried eggplant," and "ratatouille." If you feel like you've eaten too much meat lately, or if you want to add more beans to your diet, why not give it a try?
