(57) [Summary] [Problem] To completely exfoliate germ from soybean, to separate germ fraction and crushed cotyledon of small particle size that cannot be removed by square mesh always generated by crushing soybean, and crushing of small particle size To prevent cotyledon contamination and obtain a high-concentration germ soybean material with high yield. SOLUTION: Selected soybeans are coarsely crushed to 1/2 or less and the width is reduced. A method for producing a soybean raw material having a germ concentration of 35 to 80% by weight, comprising separating and concentrating a soybean germ fraction by a sieve mesh having a mesh length of 0.5 to 1.4 mm and a length / width ratio of 2 or more, and Soy material obtained in this way. Fats and oils or high isoflavone products obtained from this soybean material, foods containing the fats and oils, and cholesterol-reducing agents containing the fats and oils as main components. |
