Abstract: This study was undertaken to evaluate the nutritional potential of thua nao, a traditionally fermented soybean food of Northern Thailand. Based on the proximate analysis results, some differences in chemical compositions between fresh thua nao and thua nao kab are observed. In general, fresh thua nao contained 64.91% moisture, 1.65% ash, 7.69% crude fibre, 14.33% crude protein and 1.83% fat whereas those features of thua nao kab were 11.88%, 4.94%, 13.46%, 36.43% and 17.96%, respectively.
