    Dear Emmy,
    It was a good idea to use the INSTANT POR to cook and ferment the soybeans to make natto. Since I needed a new pressure cooker anyway, I decided on the latest model, the DUO EVO PLUS, which e.g. for yoghurt, it is not only possible to preselect fixed temperatures, but also allow individual temperature settings in 1°C increments. So I tried boiling and fermenting my first natto just with the INSTANT POT like in the video and it worked fine. However, I asked myself: Why should you use a separate bowl that has to be sterilized and use foil that creates unnecessary plastic waste, when the INSTANT POT is already perfectly sterilized after the soybeans have been cooked and a perfectly high humidity is generated inside the pot when fermenting with the lid closed. So after soaking the beans in the inner pot for about 12 hours, I cooked the beans under steam pressure for 30 minutes in an steamer basket (accessory) inside the inner pot of the INTANT POT with just 1 liter of fresh water. Then I removed the beans and let it drain in the streamer for a few minutes, poured off the cooking water (keep 2 tablespoons) and then poured the cooked beans directly into the empty inner pot, add the 2 tablespoons of cooking water and let cool down to approx. 40°C (104°F), then mix in a little of natto as a starter with a spoon and then with yoghurt setting at 40°C for 20 hours let it ferment directly in the inner pot without any foils. Close the lid but open the vent to have some air exchange. At a slightly higher temperature, it should ferment faster, at a maximum of 45°C (113°F), above which the bacillus natto dies. The result was just as good as with an additional bowl and foils. Just less rubbish and less dish washing. I then put the finished natto, including the inner pot with a matching extra lid, in the refrigerator for 24 hours to mature and then put 50-100 g (approx. 2 - 4 oz.) portions of natto into small freezer containers and put them in the freezer. This way you can create natto in the INSTANT POT with the least possible effort.

      I agree with you, however, if you already have your beans in the pyrex bowl, this can then be covered and put in the fridge as is. Once beans are done, they would have to be transferred to a bowl anyway. So its six of one, half a dozen of the other. Same amount of washing up LOL.

    This is my new favorite kitchen tool! Day 1 I was going to pressure cook a meat th-cam.com/users/postUgkxG-7WiT7ocumjytOpHDFt632PL0pxXRAg and potato stew, decided I wouldn't eat it that night so I went with a slow cook so I could go to bed and put it away in the morning. I love that versatility! The sauté feature works great and adds tons of extra flavor to dishes, and I can easily sizzle meats in the bottom then deglaze for some restaurant worthy flavors.Big bonus - you can cook a whole frozen chicken in about 2 hours. Amazing! I've seen a couple videos, haven't tried it yet, but I will soon!

  • @PhilthyMr

    Hey Emmy ! I have been making natto for about five years and this is by far the easiest way! Thanks for sharing ! Just want you to know that you don’t need to put plastic wrap on top of the container inside the instant pot. The instant pot is sealed with high humidity inside and the natto bacteria absolutely love the high humidity but need oxygen. I think your natto quality will improve a lot if you keep the film off and let the natto breathe and come in contact with the humidity. I also split my 400 gm (dry weight to start) in three small bowls so the bacteria has more room to breathe. Thanks so much I am sharing this video quite a bit with my natto groups and friends who use this for their health.

  • @kngiht84

    My favourite way to eat natto is rather elaborate but quite easy to make and very delicious. I mix natto with hot mustard, soup soy sauce, sesame oil, hot sauce, and whip the whole thing up; then serve on top of hot steamed rice, with thinly sliced green onions, and crushed up Korean "gim" (seasoned seaweed) and a sunny side up egg with crispy edges. YUM!

    Hello, ran across your video after having made natto several times before. Apparently I'm a bit more lazy. I usually just drain the water from the instant pot until 1/2 cup to a 3/4 is left and leave the entire steel pot to cool with the instant pot cover on top. This also allows the instant pot unit to cool. After about 15 min I set the instant pot to yogurt or 106F sous vide for 24hrs and mix in natto beans or spores directly into the steel instant pot. The steel pot is already sterilized from cooking the beans. No need to add an extra 2-3 steps.

  • @paulh2981
    @paulh2981 ปีที่แล้ว +56

    I typed up the steps as best I could for people who prefer to have them in print. :-)
    1. Take 1 lb (about 2 and 2/3 cups or about 450 grams) soy beans, rinsed well and sorted (remove the funky looking ones.)
    2. Place washed beans into bowl and cover them with at least 3-4 inches (7-10 cm) of water.
    3. Let soak 12-18 hours in warm weather, up to 24 hours in cooler weather, beans are ready when batches of tiny bubbles form on top of water.
    4. Drain beans then add beans to clean instant pot bowl and cover with water.
    6. Pressure steam on high for 20 minutes, natural release (let it cool on its own until the pressure indicator pops back down rather than releasing the steam)
    7. Let the beans cool to just a little warm and then drain them, saving around 2-3 tablespoons (30-45 ml) of the liquid, the beans should be easy to squish with fingers when done. Beans should not be too warm as this could kill the natto culture.
    8. Sterilize a container and spoon by boiling, or add one tablespoon (15 ml) bleach, fill container with water and allow to soak for 5 minutes, then drain and rinse well.
    9. Using sterilized spoon, add some beans to container, leave space at the top, like 1 ro 1.5 inches (about 2.5-3.5 cm.)
    10. Add 1/9th of standard natto container. Cover it with the warm beans, give it a few minutes for the warmth of the beans to thaw the natto, then add 2-3 tablespoons (30-45 ml) of the liquid, stir well to make sure the natto gets mixed with the beans.
    11. Stretch plastic wrap over the bowl and poke a few dozen holes with a toothpick or fork, then loosen the wrap and press it gently down until it's laying on the beans. Add a second piece of plastic wrap, stretch it over the top of the container and poke a few dozen holes, and leave it stretched over the top.
    12. Add a cup (about 250 ml) of hot water to the instant pot and place the steam rack into the pot. Add the container with beans onto the rack, close the lid. Set it to normal yogurt temperature for 8 hours, check to see if halos (white fuzziness) are appearing around the beans. If no halos appear, incubate for 4 more hours and check again. Once halos appear, incubate at the same setting another 8 hours.
    13. Let natto cool at room temperature for a few hours.
    14. Place into refrigerator. Flavor may improve over the next 2 to 5 days.

    Thanks for this! Successfully made great Natto using mostly your method! I had soaked 12 hrs, cooked on bean setting for 26 mins, used your cellophane technique and then reverted to a family friend’s traditional incubation method. Instead of lamps, stoves or yogurt settings, place the mix (mine was in a casserole dish) in a cooler atop containers filled with hot tap water. My friend uses old sake bottles! Change the water out every 12 hours, and after 36 hours, the natto comes out perfect! Great for bigger batches that wouldn’t fit in the instapot!

  • @steveshea6148
    @steveshea6148 3 ปีที่แล้ว +20

    If you haven't already, try putting a bowl of soaked, drained beans up on a trivet in the instant pot over half an inch of water and pressurizing for 40 minutes. That way they get steamed. My last two batches have been steamed instead of boiled beans. Keeps em from getting too much water in the center of the beans supposedly, and that definitely seems to be what happens! The steam release will be much easier and not as messy too.

    Another paleo comment! After using some natto made with black beans, I found a neat use for them. You take some raw cashews, soak in warm water until tender, then toss with natto and set them aside to ferment. I found them actually generating a bit of their own heat! Once the cashews are done to taste (a day or two? I forget) I put them in the dehydrator and let them run until dry and crisp Very unusual and tasty!

    I love your channel and have learned to love natto! I make big ole honkin' batches, so I kind of streamlined it. I cook lots of soybeans first, in the IP of course, but before I seal the lid to cook I lay a metal spoon on top to sterilize it for later. When the beans are done, fish out the sterile spoon and set it on a clean paper towel. Strain the beans, let them cool to proper temp, then dump the whole batch back into the (already sterilized by boiling IP liner). Mix in your starter really well, cover, and set it on (med) yogurt for 24 hours...then just stir and check for strings. Done! No fussing with bleach, no plastic or poking holes, no trying to layer in the right sized containers to fit inside the liner, you just use the liner! All you have to do is dole it out into any containers when it's done. I freeze half and store the rest in the fridge, and like aged cheese, it gets stronger (better) as it's stored, but I've kept it two weeks or more and it's fine! Thanks for all you do!

    I love my instapot! I got my 8 quart pot for Christmas and I use it almost everyday for something. Whether its making soup, or just making rice. Its really great for me because I'm disabled. Standing for long times in the kitchen, watching over food and other reasons its hard for me to cook meals anymore. With this for the most part I just put in the ingredients and away it goes. The short cook times are a plus, also being able to use frozen food is great. I mean we all forget to pull meat out of the freezer the night before, but with the Instapot, NO PROBLEM!
    I'm going to try and make my own mozzarella cheese at some point as well as yogurt. Also, if you aren't good at boil eggs (Alot of people can't boil eggs to get a creamy yellow middle) its sooooo EASY with this thing.
    Emmy, here are a few things I would suggest you to get for your Instapot:
    1. BUY EXTRA RINGS!--They are cheap and its best to have extra on hand. Cheap enough on Amazon.
    2. Tempered Glass Lid--I have one and its great for the non-pressured cooking. Like slow cooking or saute'
    3. Stackable Steamer Pans-- more room, and great for reheating
    4. Ceramic Non-Stick Inner Pot -- now I don't have one but people swear by it and its always good to have a second pot around so you can cook one, make the other part of the recipe and then drop this other pot in.
    5. Springform Cake Pan-- Just make sure you get one that can fit in the pot itself.
    6.Gripper Clips -- Now I have seen RunnyRunny use these on his pots and pans, the only problem is, I haven't found a good strong one. I have the 8 quart pot and all the ratings I've seen on Amazon have been kinda poor for these things. I don't want to pay out the nose for it either. This is one thing you can buy at your discretion.
    Anyways I hope these items help and I would look to see you do a InstaPot Cooking series. Sorry for rambling but I really love my instapot and once you starting using this thing, you don't know how you lived with out it.

    Thank you SO much, Emmy! My natto turned out beautifully. I've been trying to making it for years now with no success. I fermented the beans in my yogurt maker and covered them with plastic wrap just as you suggested - perfect natto. In the past I tried to make it with ordinary sized soy beans - never could get that gooey texture, but this time I used tiny sprouting soy beans and it's wonderfully stringy. The little beans are hard to find here in Australia (I bought them online at Seedmart in Brisbane if anyone out there is having similar difficulties.) Thanks a million Emmy!!

An easy way to try it would be to make a “sauce” by blending black garlic and mayonnaise- it would be great on something like asparagus, or with fish. Or maybe dip French fries in it? Look up black garlic mayonnaise for some ideas!

    I'm really inspired by your video. About six months ago I bought an Instant Pot, and I've rested secure in the knowledge that when the time came, I had a yogurt button waiting for me to press so I could ferment all sorts of wonderful things, including natto by following your instructions. The local supermarkets don't carry soy beans, but fortunately there's a Japanese grocery nearby, and I bought soy beans today. So I came back to this video, which I had bookmarked, and when you started talking about the low vs high settings on the yogurt button, I went to look at my machine, and guess what! No yogurt button at all. I'm crestfallen. The instruction manual lists the temperature ranges for the various non-pressure modes, but the lowest among those is 145 degrees, which is too hot. You mention that the incubation can be done in the oven, and that's how I'll have to do it. Though cooking soy beans will be new to me, pinto beans are a big part of my life, so I'm expert at cooking beans in the Instant Pot (including a fast pre-soak method). As you learned the hard way, natural release is the way to go with beans and many other foods. Anyway, I will figure out an alternative for the incubation. Thanks for a great video because, even when I can't reproduce your techniques here, the moral support you lend is invaluable. Thanks a million! :)

  • @brramzi31
    @brramzi31 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I've watched so many Natto making videos and I've noticed a few things to what makes a natto making successful. 1, is to steam the soybeans rather than boiling them. Boiling the soybeans helps them retain more water that could give it too much moisture during the time of fermentation, which is what you don't want. After fermentation, the soybeans should be semi-dry, just as how you see them as a purchased Natto package. 2, is to not have a large layer of the soybeans as they set in the fermentation process. The deeper the layer, the more moisture that is retained especially at the bottom of the containing vessel. Excess moisture will give you a dry top later and anything past that will look like the soybeans prior to the fermentation. All the beans will be inoculated but you won't develop the classic Natto "slime" as you'd expect. You can, on the other hand, if you do decide to use a Instant Pot for your mechanism, use a perforated containing vessel so to allow the side and bottom layers to have warm air circulating and to allow the soybeans to breath and expel some moisture. Or, simply do not exceed more than a 4-5 layer of the soybeans while they are in the fermentation process. 3, Never seal shut the soybeans as they ferment. The bacteria are aerobic and need air to help them grow. Simply lay a dry cloth, or paper towel over the rim of the pot, and to secure that, simply place the lid over it at a slight angle. 4, I'd do without the double perforated plastic wrap if your working with a deep layered containment of soybeans. Again, amount of air and ventilation is crucial. It is ok, to do so, as Natto Dad displayed but recall his layers of soybeans were not as much. Practice makes perfect. I hope I've been of help to everyone.

    So many people in the comments saying they don't like it but they won't even try it. Then how do you know?
    Such a shame! Natto is delicious and healthy! A great food, just mix it up and enjoy! Oh and it's cheap too ;)

      Sometimes looks alone can throw people off, the thought of it rotting makes me queasy and would be hard to try. 😣 but I won't shame the people who enjoy!

    • @dlhanson51

      Amazon has both. Signature Soy has the small non-GMO soybeans that work best for natto. And search for Nattomoto for the spores. Or if you can buy Japanese frozen natto locally, you can use a spoon full of that instead of spores (that’s what Emily did).

    Great wonderful to see you can use the insta pot for natto. You can also use a regular cooler with a hot pad for food, and three bowls ( if it's the big size) that you put hot water, then set the large pan of Natto over that with a night light also in the cooler and let it brew your desired length.

      If you add garlic to them while cooking, then you won't have that problem. It's weird, but it works.

      Anna Shamulus Really? That's interesting, I'll keep it in mind. A couple weeks ago, I made taco rice with chickpeas (and garlic, as usual) and didn't have any problems afterwards, so it might be true 😃

    The steam setting is under pressure.
    Steam. This button cooks at High Pressure for 10 minutes. Adjusted to more cooks for 15 minutes. Adjusted to less cooks for 3 minutes. Use this function with a rack or steamer basket because it heats at full power continuously while it’s coming to pressure and you don’t want food in direct contact with the bottom of the pressure cooking pot. Once it reaches pressure, the steam button regulates pressure by cycling on and off, similar to the other pressure buttons.

    Oh hey, you get the same natto brand as me! It's my favorite. I've tried making my own natto like this but I don't like how it turns out when using the bigger soybeans, unfortunately. I wish it was easier to find the smaller varieties.

    Emmy, you make me want to try things I would normally take one look at and scoff in disgust. I appreciate your approach to new things, because it broadens my horizons. Thank you for reminding me with subtle grace there is value in experience, even, unpleasant ones. Just because my palette rejects it, does not mean it is inherently bad. ;)
