Tonight we had a really great dinner. Stir-fried vegetable dumplings, with just a drizzle of soy sauce, steamed edamame, and brown rice. Man, it was good. As I was eating it and enjoying it, it occurred to me how much of it was soy based. The dumpling shell, probably, and the contents, more or less, the sauce, and the edamame of course. And my daughter had fake chicken nuggets, which are also probably entirely made of soy. It's so versatile. It's amazing that you can get bread, meat, vegetable, and milk (not to mention ink, fiber, and probably other things) out of this one plant.
What is wrong with me that as I sat there thinking about soy, I realized I knew the scientific name of the plant?
