A bean removed from the soybean pod, which has been soaked in a water-based solution, dry roasted, and salted or seasoned. Depending on the selected purpose, the bean is flavored accordingly, perhaps with a sweetened glaze, to become a snack food or a bean used to complement salads and other types of food dishes.
