powdered soya chunks | soya chunks powder | soy chunks powder | powdered soy nuggets | with 4 amazing images. 

Necessity is indeed the mother of all inventions. The same is with powdered soya chunks. When I was experimenting with some new recipes, we ran out of soya granules and did not know what to do! So, I ground some soya chunks to make soya chunks powder. Then we used them in the recipe of Corn Soya Koftas in Malwani Gravy and it turned out to be awesome. 

Powdered soy nuggets are considered to be one of the best sources of protein. It also abounds in calcium and these 2 nutrients together work towards strengthening your bones. 

Soy chunks powder has great water soaking capacity. It soaks up water and increases the bulk of any recipe. Thus powdered soy nuggets used as a binding agent, especially useful for making stuffing for Parathas like in Dal and Soya Parathas . 

Mixing soya chunks powder with plain water and consuming it as a drink may not be the best option though. This reason is the same. It will soak all the water and turn into a paste rather than a protein drink. 

You can make soya chunks powder in bulk and store them in an air-tight container and use as required.
