Soy milk, also referred to as soymilk or soya milk, is a plant milk produced by soaking dried soybeans and grinding them in water. A traditional staple of East Asian cuisine, soy milk is a stable emulsion of oil, water and protein. Soy milk can be produced at home using a soy milk machine. == Prevalence == Soymilk (豆浆, ''doujiang'') originated in China, probably during the early Han dynasty (202 BCE to 9 CE), after the rotary millstones was introduced and was widely used to grind wheat.〔H.T. Huang, "Early Uses of Soybean in Chinese History. Chapter 2 in The World of Soy, eds Christine M. Du Bois, Chee-Beng Tan, and Sidney Mintz. University of Illinois Press (August 4, 2008) ISBN 978-0252033414〕 It did not become widely used in China until the 1800s, when it was discovered that extended heating made it taste better and easier to digest.〔 In China, Brazil, Mexico, Malaysia and Argentina, soy drinks are a popular alternative to soymilk. Soy drinks are at least 1.5 % protein, less than 0.5% fat, and are 5 – 15% sugar; soy milk is at least 3% protein and at least 1% fat.〔Khoreen New for Palsgaard Asia-Pacific. (Making Soy Convenient )〕 Soymilk was introduced on the US market by Vitasoy in 1979; the first domestic manufacturer of soymilk was Sunrich Food Group, which introduced its products in 1985.〔Soyfoods Association of North America (History of Soy Products )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「soy milk」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
