Oh christ, I forgot that's what these were. So that's the one and only
way I know that they are good. Surprising that they are so soft there.
I suppose somewhere along the line I got the black soybeans confused.
That's what's available in bags at the Korean mart if memory serves.

I took a Vietnamese cooking class a couple of years back and we made
soy milk and tofu, among other things, it was pretty easy--I remember
that. How to do it? That part I've forgotten.
