How to make plastic-free tempeh with mixed beans
Tips #1: Start with soybeans
Soybean is the most popular tempeh ingredient, perhaps not without reason. Making soybean tempeh is the easiest. Try to get that solid texture, fresh good smell, and delicious taste of your hand-made tempeh first. You won't be able to stop afterwards.
Tips #2: Play and have fun
Experiment with your choices of beans, leaves, and shape.
Tips #3: Be patient
Often times it takes more than 1 trial to make tempeh successfully. Everybody has their own recipe, secret, and pleasure.
Tips #4: Do it with others
Making tempeh has been a communal thing in Indonesia. It is something meditative and brings people together.
