   This recipe was one of Henry Ford’s favorite snacks. The recipe was found
   in Cooking For Henry, a cookbook by Henry Ford’s personal party chef, Jan
   Willemse. In 1934, Mr. Ford requested Willemse experiment in cooking with
   soybeans, and the cookbook has an entire chapter dedicated to soybean
   recipes.
   
   Ford was a strong supporter of soybeans and saw the possibility for the
   use of soybeans in food, milk, ice cream, paint, plastics, and many
   other things before 1930. In Ford’s fast-growing automobile industry,
   and since, the soybean played a large part in the manufacturing of
   commercial products.
