SURATA SOYFOODS
Surata Soyfoods has been a Eugene, Oregon institution since March of 1977, when it produced its first pounds of tofu, which were sold in water-filled zip-loc baggies to two or three health food stores around town. Since that day, our customer base has expanded to include stores, restaurants, supermarkets and institutions throughout the Pacific Northwest. Our product line has grown to include two kinds of tofu and five kinds of tempeh. Our tofu is sold bulk in buckets and 16lb. vacuum packed units, and retails in 16 ounce water-filled containers or in 8oz. vacuum-packed packages. Our tempeh comes in both 3.25 lb. bulk sizes and in 12 ounce re-sealable packages.
Throughout its history, Surata has maintained a steadfast commitment to using only organic, non-GMO soybeans and other ingredients in all its products. This commitment reflects our belief in the tremendous nutritional benefits of soy when used in traditional whole foods such as tofu and tempeh. We take the nutrients found in the soybean and convert them directly into food fit for human consumption - a far more ecological means of using soy than when it is used as livestock food. Tofu and tempeh can thus help reduce the drastic environmental impact of our culture's dietary habits.
This web site is designed to acquaint you with Surata's tofu and tempeh, and give you some ideas of how to use them when preparing simple nutritious meals for breakfast, lunch or dinner. We provide some information about the health benefits of soy, and counter some of the misinformation recently circulated about its alleged dangers. Our recipes and information will be regularly updated, so please check us out often!
