This is the best natto video i have seen. I made a few batches over the past few weeks with varying results and this video is the closest to my good batches. The temperature is more accurate and fermenting process has no cover and no water and ammonia smell. Great video.

This video made me feel like I am in Japan. Although I never went, I feel strangely...懐かしい。XD

Thank you very much for your comment!!

[@proteus1]

If you already have natto that's purchased from shop, can you add some of this to the soya beans to get fermentation?

[@jinn2722]

yes

[@chriswessely5895]

Yes you can. You can take the frozen store natto and use about 1/4 of it as a starter. BUT... I think the natto spores (nattomoto) makes a better final product.

[@Zeelian]

Yes.

[@orfamayQ]

Yes, there are other videos that show this method.

[@gavinjw-p2018]

David Patheyjohns yes. My grandma does it!

[@thpap9609]

hello, thank you for this video. My question is whether it is possible to make these recipes with other legumes except of soya beans , such as lupins or peas.

[@foodforwellbeing2621]

Thank you for your comment!!

[@HacknBuild]

Sure can. I will try with pinto beans, white beans, and black beans.

[@harveyg9898]

Very clear and thorough explanation, thank you!

[@chongmcrae5030]

Thank you very much! I will make it! Very Soon!

[@foodforwellbeing2621]

Thank you very much for your comment!!

[@moonchild1518]

Thank you for this video, it is most helpful. However, I have no pressure cooker or microwave, so how do I use a standard pan?.

[@chriswessely5895]

You'll have to simmer the soybeans in water in a pot for around 9hrs then.

[@pwu8194]

Yes.

[@joycekemp9545]

You can use standard but be prepared to boil for about two hours till becomes tender .... it is called ‘stone beans’ in our language since it takes notorious long time to cook

[@gloglos100]

Wonderful video thank you.

Hello, Thank you for the video. May I ask where we can buy natto starter ?

[@foodforwellbeing2621]

Thank you for your comment!! You can buy it amazon.com!

[@carldaniels3659]

sir, are soy beans the ONLY type of bean that can be used for fermenting natto? will mung beans work? any other bean suggestions? also, when I order the natto starter, unopened how long will the starter last if stored according to your recommendation?

[@frankchen4229]

tbh, any legume and grain will work .. soybeans are just the traditional one

[@chriswessely5895]

You can use any kind of bean really, but keep in mind that soybeans are especially nutritious considering it's a complete protein (contains all 9 amino acids)

[@MrBobWareham]

See the youtube channel natto dad for different beans

[@pwu8194]

The endospores can outlive you, but no merchant will guarantee more than 1 year. They are in the business of making money.

[@maryrozema6455]

You can use other type of beans as well! Didnt try it though, but i have a recepe in which kidney beans are used :)

[@sofoklisladas7851]

When I eat beans ( a lot as vegan) make me fell blowed and gassy, do natto procedurre reduces this discomfort? Or these bacteria are gassy as well? Thanks a lot!!

[@foodforwellbeing2621]

Thank you very much for your comment. I am not sure the reason make you blowed and gassy when you eat beans. But the natto fermented procedure might reduce such kind of discomfort. It worth a try. I hope you will like natto.

[@foodforwellbeing2621]

Thank you for your comment. This pressure cooker is "Hakko meijin" our brand. I am sorry but the product is not for sale.

[@PaulYoungMinnesota]

can I get the spores from capsules of probiotic products that say they have LIVE bacillius subtilis spores? The spore powder is not for sale in USA.

[@foodforwellbeing2621]

Thank you very much for your comment!! You can buy our natto starter Amazon.com(USA).

[@asimtahir7859]

[@GunawanTaya]

1.bean is boil? Not steam with pressure cooker? ( 2.41). 2.natto spora/ solusion mixed with hot water or cool water? Or warm water? (3.21).

[@foodforwellbeing2621]

Thank you for your comment!!

[@ArtanisTheEvil]

doesn't the soybeans skin make it harder for the fermentation bacteria to take over the beans?

[@foodforwellbeing2621]

Thank you for you comment!

[@proteus1]

I can't find the food warmer on your website. Can you send a link to page.

[@chriswessely5895]

You can also get an electric burner, set it to 100 degrees and stick it in the bottom of your oven. This will make your entire oven warm. Put the natto into a glass container, covered with plastic or cheesecloth.

[@MrBobWareham]

I use an instant pot to make mine as it does it all from start to finish

[@akikoomori7559]

You can use the yogurt maker with temperature and time control. Mine also came with 8 of 6 oz glass jars. Set the temp 104 and 24 hours. Do not put the top on the jars. I cover the whole jars with a piece of wet cloth then put the cover on the yogurt maker.( so that the surface won’t dry ) This video says 45c which is little higher than the way I do. Mine works perfect and I am sure 45c -113f would work also.

[@foodforwellbeing2621]

Thank you for your comment!

[@yulloveyullove326]

Can you use yeast the one to make bread, instead of natto starter?

[@foodforwellbeing2621]

I'm afraid but you can't use yeast for natto making.

[@frankchen4229]

Yeast isn't bacteria. It's a fungus Natto is a bacteria.

[@MegaMoongate]

Nice video, but I'm in India and here we don't get natto starter easily. So please explain how to make it at home as well as spices to add this delicious food.... Or make another video....

Great video! We tried Natto for the first time when we were in Japan and also made a video about it on our channel. We didn't like it at all :( I don't think we will try it again haha.

Here because of banana fish lol

[@foodforwellbeing2621]

Thank you very much for your comment!!

[@cdgarrett1]

Will it work with all beans or does it have to be soybeans? Most if not all soybeans in the US are GMO and have protein inhibitors that are not good for humans. Plus soybeans produce estrogen in men. Not so good for men. Perhaps the fermentation process breaks down the soybeans as to not have these negative effects?

[@foodforwellbeing2621]

It work with almost all soybean. As you said, I recommend Non GMO beans for Natto making. Thank you for your comment.

[@cdgarrett1]

かわしま屋 Well Being- 健康のつくり方 - I don’t want soya beans because they produce estrogen in men and have protein inhibitors. I wanted to know if the fermentation process will work on all beans that are not soybeans?

[@daus2910]

All beans is ok...try experimenting with small batch...however this is the top 3 Superfood that listed for longevity..and original recipe is using soybeans..
