This recipe is not natto cuisine ~ I have been doing natto for 8 years, since the epidemic, I pay more attention to the health of myself and my family, in order to learn more knowledge, I have joined a lot of food-related exchange groups. Last year, I saw in different groups, some group friends especially love natto, and I was very happy at that time. At the same time, I also learned that they were not very satisfied with the natto they made. Make natto in just 3 steps, soak. steam. ferment. It sounds very simple, and it is really not difficult. But it takes about 3 days to make natto, it is easily affected by the climate, and it needs to take care of the cute beans frequently. In fact, whether it is natto or whatever all fermented foods need to rely on experience. Each step should be done carefully, deserted, the effect of the finished product is too different, so people with high requirements for taste and texture find it difficult to make natto. This recipe is meant to share my experience. Japanese people make authentic natto in China, and only I can write this recipe to introduce the modern Japanese authentic version of the method. To use natto mushrooms and fermentation constant temperature machine (fermentation box, natto machine, etc. can be) The traditional version of fermenting with straw is not suitable for living in the city I Remind: want natto effect! Need to eat every day! So choose the most suitable practice for yourself Ha! ⚠️ Some people are not suitable for eating natto ⚠️ For example, those who eat warfarin (a Western medicine, an anticoagulant) should not eat natto. Eating natto produces vitamin K in the intestine, which affects the normal absorption of warfarin. Because my relatives take this medicine so know, for other drugs I do not know, if worried recommended to consult a doctor. People who don't usually take medicine, there is no problem with eating natto!

<h2>Royalties</h2>
Soybeans to taste
Natto bacteria Depend on the steps
<h2>Practice steps</h2>
1. Choose raw materials according to your own needs. As a reminder, if you are a natural yeast baking enthusiast, natto bacteria may affect yeast growth. The yeast and the natto in the fermentation are far away, and the fermentation box should not be shared. I like to use the green box of Japanese imported natto mushrooms, this small box only 3g natto mushrooms, can make 30kg natto, imported mushrooms are good! A treasure can be bought. Shelf life when purchased on the box to confirm of course, you can choose to use Chinese products, the price is cheaper, I have also used several, but did not get the effect I wanted. Soybeans I choose organic beans from China.
2, today with 300g of soybeans. Throw it away on the surface of the water and rinse it off. Put more than 1000 ml of water and cover the lid. Water temperature 3-5 degrees: 24 hours Water temperature 10-15 degrees: 15 hours Water temperature 20-25 degrees: 6 hours (not recommended) Because the higher the water temperature, the easier it is to deteriorate, it is recommended to refrigerate for 24 hours in summer. After soaking in water, the weight becomes 2-2.5 times larger and drain the water.
3, choose a larger pot (pots and pans must be oil-free!). Add plenty of water. Bring to a boil on high heat and then turn to medium heat and cook for about 2 minutes, with floating powder to skim off. For later ease of operation, I put the beans in the steam basket
4, take out the steaming basket, pour the water, the pot to rinse.
5, soybeans can also be rinsed, to be gentle ~ ~
6, I am used to steaming with a pressure cooker, there is no pressure cooker can choose an ordinary steamer (steamed steamed steam Reference: Pressure cooker 20-30 minutes, ordinary steamer for more than 6 hours
7, [focus] sterilization and sterilization carefully do steamed beans when preparing, "sterilizing water" is not so magical is cool boiling water appropriate amount of water boiling for 5 minutes after letting it cool. Heat-resistant boxes, metal spoons, etc.: Boiled in boiling water for 2 minutes, dry naturally Do not buy hot plastic tools, etc.: Washed in hot water and touched with disinfectant alcohol in the kitchen to dry. In the photo, there is a small plastic spoon, not for the ears, and there is a green locket of natto mushrooms. 10 ml of sterilized water, 1 cup (0.1 g) of natto bacteria, stir well until melted
8, [focus] to what extent to steam with the thumb and small thumb clamp, without force can also be crushed. This is a must! Rest assured, the finished natto hardness is just right, fermentation can make the beans tight I guess ah, probably most friends here did not do it, affecting the final taste.
9: Put the steamed beans in a sterilized dish and pour in the natto mushroom solution prepared in step 12. Stir well and put it in a small box to eliminate the poison. Speed is needed! Bean temperature is very important! Note: Do not crush the beans while stirring!
10, I use natto fermentation box, can fill the steamed 60-70g of beans, each time to make 12 boxes, our whole family 4 days of the amount. Because this box to put the refrigerator is very space-consuming, not suitable for everyone. Ordinary crisper box + plastic wrap + poke a small hole with a toothpick, can be replaced
11, I use the Suber water stew pot (non-advertising) really tools are not important, I have been using a yogurt machine of about 20 yuan to make natto, and I have been successful for 7 years. Fermentation tanks, steam ovens (a bit of power consumption) are all available. Temperature 30-40 degrees, Summer: 15-20 hours (not in air conditioning) Winter: 20-24 hours (without heating) Depends on the indoor temperature of the season. 【Focus】 Natto fermentation requires oxygen Under the condition of ensuring the fermentation temperature, it is occasionally necessary to open the glass cover to send fresh air.
12, summer room temperature 27-30 degrees, heat preservation 40 degrees, 18 hours later. Fermentation time is not important, mainly depends on the drawing state. The aroma is normal and intense. If the disinfection is not good, the bacteria have a rotten smell (smelly rag kind of ... Refrigerate for 24 hours. The aim is to stop fermentation and mature.
13. Introduce the standard mixing method. Do not put the soy sauce first, stir until it is fully drawn, and then put the appropriate amount of soy sauce about 3ml. Stir again. Put Japanese yellow wasabi (do not use green!) Don't use French Western food either. If you don't like to eat spicy, you can not put it) Finally put green onions ~
