Okara is best known as the base for unohana, a simmered Japanese side dish, and this frozen 300g pack brings that same soft, pale pulp to your freezer. It is the fibrous by-product left over from making soya milk, with a mild, slightly nutty flavour and a soft, crumbly texture once thawed. In real kitchens, okara turns up in more than one dish. Cooks use it to bind vegetable patties and burgers, giving them body without heaviness. It works well stirred into soups and stews as a thickener, and it can be folded into dumpling or gyoza fillings alongside vegetables. Some bakers add small amounts to bread or cake mixes in place of some flour, giving a denser crumb. Because it is frozen, keep the pack in the freezer until needed and thaw it fully in the fridge before cooking. Once thawed, drain off any excess liquid before using it in patties or fillings, as this keeps the texture firm rather than wet. Use thawed okara within a day or two and avoid refreezing once defrosted. This pack suits home cooks who want to try Japanese-style cooking or simply add extra texture to burgers, soups and baked goods. Store any unused portion back in the freezer in a sealed container to keep it fresh for next time.
