Organic Okara

Okara is the solid pulp left over after soybeans are processed to make soy milk or tofu. It is a byproduct of soy processing. The pulp is typically cooked or dried before use.

Okara is used as a source of dietary fiber and protein in food products. It can add bulk and a chewy texture to foods. It is often found in vegetarian meat alternatives, baked goods, and snacks.

Okara is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of fiber and plant-based protein. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated soy products, but specific evaluations for okara are not widely published. It is considered safe and nutritious at typical consumption levels.
