Chemical composition and antinutritional factors in soy and faba beans and tofus produced thereof were evaluated. Both bean curds had higher protein contents (55.7 and 82.0% dry basis for soy and faba bean curds, respectively) than the corresponding raw beans. Tofu made from faba bean (FBT) contained only 1.5% total lipids (dry basis) compared to 34.4% in soybean tofu (SBT). Antinutritional and flatulence factors were much lower in FBT. Favism factors were not examined. In vitro studies showed that SBT and FBT are comparable in terms of digestibility and amino acid availability.
