Culinary students from North Dakota State College of Science (NDSCS) attended the North Dakota Soybean Council’s (NDSC) Food and Farm Tour on October 3-4, 2023, and the Culinary Seminar on October 5, 2023.
Students visited NDSC Treasurer Jim Thompson’s farm as he harvested soybeans near Page, North Dakota, and some students were fortunate enough to ride in the combine.
At the end of the Culinary Seminar, a soy recipe contest was announced. Entries were submitted in three categories: appetizer, entrée and dessert. The top three winners for each category were awarded scholarship funds to help with tuition.
The culmination of the recipe contest took place on February 20, 2024, at NDSCS.
April is National Soyfoods Month. Soy protein is a high-quality, plant-based protein. Soy ingredients are low in saturated fat and are cholesterol free. To learn more about adding soy to everyday meals, visit TheSoyfoodsCouncil.com and SoyConnection.com.
