fermented beans

Natto over rice with Avocado, cucumber, scallions, and bonito flakes

natto

warm, cooked Japanese rice (preferably short grain)

avocado, chopped

English cucumber,

scallion, finely chopped

Raw egg (optional)

Soy sauce

Place the rice in a bowl and top with the remaining ingredients. Serve immediately

I have been making my own Natto for years.  I do it like the comment below except I don't buy spores, just add a package of store bought Natto to the beans instead.   I want to know a recipe for the packaged seasonings. Just Soy sauce is ok, but any better ideas you have would be great.

I have tried this recipe and it's great!
Being pre-diabetic I have to be careful of the spikes that white rice can give. So I usually have my natto on top of oatmeal.  Add a little soy sauce and furikake and its delicious.  Love it.

Enjoy these tangy and delicious fermented beans!

Fermented Beans

Liquid Starter Culture (See Below

Water (Optionally, you can replace the water

(Use

Cook the beans of your choice until the the skins have split. They should be quite tender, but not mush.

If the beans didn&#39;t split during cooking, you can gently break the beans open with your hands or a fork. Be careful not to mash them.   FYI: If the skins aren’t split open, the probiotics will not be able to feed on the inner starch of the bean and the fermentation process will fail.

Prepare The Beans

If you are adding vegetables:  Chop up the vegetables and add to a large bowl.

Add the beans to the veggies in the bowl and mix everything together without mashing the beans. If you want to ferment beans only, then skip this step.

Prepare The Vegetables (optional)

Wash the jar and fermenting weight in hot soapy water.  Sterilization is not required, hot &amp; soapy water is sufficient.

Prepare The Jar &amp; Weight

Fill the jar with the bean mixture.  NOTE: Make sure the beans have cooled to room temperature first.Then while holding the jar with one hand, bump its bottom end with your other hand to settle the beans until there is about a 3 inch (5-6cm) headspace.

Add a glass fermenting weight atop everything in the jar.Set the jar down and next prepare the liquid starter culture that will also double as the brine.

Load The Jar

Pour your choice of liquid starter culture into a pourable glass measure cup.

Add the salt to the starter culture.  Stir the salt until dissolved. 

Add the water to the liquid starter culture.  Optionally, you can replace the water with more vegetable brine or kombucha if you have plenty.

Pour the liquid starter culture into to the jar until all the contents and the fermenting weight are covered.

Prepare The Liquid Starter Culture

Leave the beans on the counter at room temperature for 4 to 5 days.  So long as the lid is loose, the fermentation gasses will be able to escape and you will not need to burp the jar.

Exposure to regular room light is fine, but it is best to keep the ferment out of direct sunlight.

The Fermentation Period

After the fermentation period of 4 to 5 days, it is time to end the fermentation.If kahm yeast developed on the surface of the beans, do not worry, it is harmless.

You can remove the kahm yeast by first reaching into the jar and pulling out the fermenting weight.  The removal of the weight will take with it most of the kahm yeast.Follow up with a paper towel to dab off the remaining kahm yeast flakes floating on the surface. Also wipe the inside of the jar with the paper towel  A little leftover kahm yeast is harmless so don&#39;t worry if there are remnants. In my Fermented Beans video, I provide a demonstration of how to remove the kahm yeast.

Ending The Fermentation

Do not return the fermenting weight to the jar.  Place a tight lid on the jar of fermented beans and transfer to the refrigerator for storage. If the beans fermented properly, they should last about 2 months in the fridge.Enjoy!
