The basis of food is “soybean”. Tofu is made from squeezed soymilk after mashing and boiling soybeans. A lot of nutrition remains in the pomace that squeezes plenty of soy beans. Japanese people do not mix fried okara with soup stock and eat tofu as it is, fry it up, make it deep fried, freeze it tofu, etc. I ate protein every day as a soy dish.
