i have watched 10s of videos about making natto - thank you your system is so uncomplicated and easy to remember. I predict this video will get thousands and probably millions of views.
That's it!!! I even have no time to put it down, you already done! Can't wait to make mine, thank you for sharing this simplest way that I ever seen to make natto, the pressure cooker will be delivered today, no excuse to say no anymore, definite would like to start right away after that
I have gone through your threads and saw there were some questions which were unanswered. I have contacted Phiya who I know personally and he answered as follows........hope these answers help!! 1. I throw out the soaking water and use fresh water for steam pressure cooking. 2. The steamer basket I use has feet so that whether you use the stand or not it is the same height from the bottom of the pot. I add water up to the bottom of the steamer basket and not above the steamer basket so that no water is touching the beans. 3. The beans don’t need to cool down when you switch to the yogurt setting. They will cool down to match the yogurt setting temperature. 4. Yes, I store the beans in the refrigerator and they will keep for about two week. You can put them in the freezer to make them last longe but never do because I eat all I make in that time period.
Thankyou!!! Using organic natto soybeans from Laura farms,I soaked without even rinsing the beans for about 20 hours,then I set my pressure steam level in my 6 quarter instant pot to LOW ,rinsed the soaked beans once after I dumped them into my "instant pot brand steamer basket then added 3/4 cup of water to the bottom of the main insert pot then followed all given times for steaming and fermenting. Thank you again. Perhaps those who were unsuccessful streamed on high pressure.
Thank you for the low pressure tip. My beans turned out great. But as I can’t get small grain beans in Australia I’ve put them back on yoghurt setting for a little longer than 24 hours to increase sliminess as there wasn’t enough slimy.
1 used 11/2 cups of pre soaked beans to start,but I did not get real slimy natto that time or the second time. I want real slimy natto so I am still experimenting
You very much simplified the process. We live in remote south India and getting culture is very tough for me . Thank you! The best and most useful way of making natto… everyone in TH-cam I ssaw did with starter or store bought natto.
Wow, thank you so much! This is a game changer. I had to order Natto starter online because there was nowhere to get Natto or starter where I live. This is hands down the easiest, cheapest no nonsense Natto making I've seen! You are awesome. Thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you Phiya! I have an instant pot that was given to me which I have used exactly one time 3 years ago. It has been gathering dust! I will definitely make natto using this method!
It should work, I bought Insta Pot for Natto, I think my fail before had to do with the temperature of my yogurt maker. I don't see any other reason, with this method it works because there is no chance of cross contamination because you start with very hot, and it cools to Fremont, Good Luck @@lauraboyd8858
UPDATE: It worked! Wow! Sachiaki Takamiya at The Igikai Diet channel says to add disinfected mint or rice stalks that naturally contain the bacillus subtillis natto bacteria. This is so much easier! I'm going to try it. Thank you, Phiya!
It works. Thank you. I used the Phipps high pressure cooker. High pressure Steam for 58 minutes(max setting) and incubated for 24hrs at yoghurt setting. 🎉
Thanks for the east steps! I literally made my first batch using a starter. Mine was not as stringy...will leave in instantpot longer like you suggested. Looking forward to trying your method next time.
Thank you, thank you, I used a starter, but will try your way. I put my in a insulated bag and leave in the garage, like the old way to make yogurt 😊and fermented great no instant pot . God is great . I just used to cook the beans in the pressure cooker for 15 minutes, but steam . Let see if it’ll work out, then I come back to tell you guys. Obs. I leave in Florida, so here is hot . This is the reason I leave it out side in the garage. Hope this helps someone.
In fact, I am making natto while watching your teaching, easy peasy, nice and neat. The Question is did you actually let it rest 24 hours after fermented of this batch? Thanks and subbed.
I've been making natto using the starter and sometimes some natto from previous batch but have only ever once achieved super slime. I will try this method because I honestly think I could do better
Thanks a lot ! ! ! You simplified it and stack the cost down by a lot, because in my country all is extremely expensive, I now have to solve the main product issue: soy beans. The only way I found to get my hands on it at an affordable cost is to order them in a quite big quantity in india . . .: it is about the third of the price compared to here, where it is difficult to find and expensive, as well as when ordered online..
Thank You for producing your video, 2 days ago, i followed all the steps, but i did not use organic soya beans & only wanted to experiment using Half of your recipe. After rinsing, soaking for 24 hours until soft, i pressure-steamed for 3 hours until very soft. Then, drained, and reserved and used the recommended amount of water for 1/2 the recipe. i set the cooker on Yogurt for 24 hours and yesterday, checked the results, but the beans did not look, nor smell like Natto, however, the water had dried up.. So, i added a little more boiled water and and have set it for another 24 hours. Was wondering what went wrong?? i will send follow up comments, after this 24 hour period is up. Thanks, any assistance would be deeply appreciated. I live in Vancouver, BC, Canada
Hi Phiya and thank you for this. I started eating Natto for the health benefits that Nattokinase has on the heart and arteries. I have a number of Asian markets near me so it's easy to find. After discovering your video I'll now be making it. What I purchase from the markets comes frozen in individual containers. How long will fresh natto last stored in the refrigerator? I subscribed to your channel.
I have just ordered soybeans to make natto for the same reason as you. I take nattokinaise supplements currently but wanted a natural source. Did you find the answer to how long they last? Also what amount do you eat daily? Thanks
Made my 1st batch of black soybean natto. It looked okay after the 24 hr ferment, but the neba neba didn't form. Tastes and smells okay. Without the neba-neba, will it still contain the nattokinase and K2??? Help! Thank you!
I wonder if Phiya refrains from rinsing his soybeans before soaking them as rinsing must wash off the bacillus subtillis bacteria, no? Or perhaps he saves the rinse water and uses it to steam the soybeans (and takes from that to pour over them before steaming)?
2 หลายเดือนก่อน
What is the shelve life or how to keep it ? And how long ?
Yes, you can use a regular pressure cooker to steam pressure cook the beans but you need a way to incubate the soybeans for 24 hours. You can use a cooler with a 25 watt light bulb as a heat source.
It's more likely that he has the natto bacteria around in his environment because he has been using and making natto. I'm sure his hands and the air around him have plenty of Bacillus Subtilis.
One question about instant pot: never had one, does it have options to stay on for any time you want and choose a low temperature? Because if I get one, I think of making black garlic, and that needs to stay on for couple of weeks if I remember well.
@@gud9dum9 I ran out of soybeans and tried navy beans. They were very good but not a clue if they offer the same health benefits as the traditional soy.
@CharGC123 Navy beans have a very high nutritional profile. Whether fermented or not, you can't lose. Callelini beans are the only ones I know that are denser.
THX A BUNCH but I am so curious to know so much about natto. We have seen macrobiotics help our family so much with vascular concerns like CCM's etc but want to know how Natto can help us we pray it can due to so many calcium deposits everywhere in body. Can it help the liver? Can it cause more clotting? We need less clotting. How much should we take? As we understand taking natto in pill form is not good because we dont know know what is really in the pill? Having breast sensitivity has made it difficult to eat or enjoy yummy soy of any kind. Estrogen dominance. Now a thyroid nodule was found a month ago so I dont know where to start as we loved Denny Waxman, he helped my sweet twins brains when they were toddlers. I know how Denny was inspired by your dad and now Denny helped my husband and I have babies where all over nobody could help us no matter how many drugs or natural ways and now Denny has inspired my sweet twins too who are now trying very slowly to do an organic cooking for kids channel on TH-cam to help other children make better eating choices. Now is it ok to have Natto (natural K2) if you have a blood clotting disorder (too much clotting due to MTHFR & COMPT)? We are all so curious. It is a "dirty gene" Dr Ben Lynch explains.
Hello, I tried but no luck, any specific soya beans brand? what are the settings for steam cook - Pressure(none, low, high)? and what are the settings for yogurt Temperature(Low, medium, High, Custom)? I tried by soaking over night and steam cook for 3 hours with pressure High and then yogurt setting for 24 hours with Temperature medium which is about 107 - and this didn't work.
I tried this but it wasn't slimy like traditional natto. I think itvwas because i pushed the pressure button and not the steam button. I'm trying it again.
The liquid I have remaining from steaming soybeans to make natto is gelatinous when it cools. Is this a sign of its ability to ferment the soybeans as Phiya shows here? Does anyone else have this?
other receipes call for a small portion of store bought natto to help fermentation. throwing out the soaked water is a waste what is the benefit of using fresh water vs soaked water? I like medium natto and a bit of firmess when consuming natto , his video after 24hr fermenting looks too bloated and soft, I would try to mimic they way the Japanese have made their natto
Does anyone understand why this natto-making process works? Everywhere on the internet it is said natto cannot be created without bacillus subtilis and that this type of bacteria does not exist on the beans themselves and must be added. I see the end result looks like natto and from what I get is the cooking water cannot contain any bacillus subtilis. Does anyone understand more clearly?
I also don't understand how this works. It could be different bacteria in this "natto" where it doesn't have Nattokinase and other things we want from natto.. Natto can be made basically from all grains and legumes. THe bacteria simply needs mainly proteins in that grain/legume it doesn't care if its white bean or soy bean.. But you still need some source of that specific bacteria and the easiest way is to buy natto in store and once you make your own natto you just put a side small amount of that natto for another batch.. I think making it without natto bacteria can be dangerous because you don't know what bacteria is growing in that food..
There's a chance this isn't really natto, and may not have the vitamin K or the nattokinase that most people seek from natto. It might be a Bacillus Subtilis species, but not Bacillus Subtilis sp natto. There's also a risk of non subtilis species, like Bacillus cereus which is potentially pathogenic. Just because it seems to "work" in creating slimey edible beans, research doesn't support the use of wild bacteria in home production as a wise approach. Here's a study that isolated 424 strains of spore-forming microbes of the species Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens collected from rice straw in different regions across Japan. Of those 424 strains, only 57 (~14%) were able to successfully ferment the soybeans. The study mentions that γPGA production alone (responsible for the sticky texture) is not a predictor of the ability to ferment natto. In other words, some strains may produce γPGA and result in a sticky appearance, but they may still fail to fully ferment the soybeans properly. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3187134/?fbclid=IwY2xjawFfJVpleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHbvFO56eaoMY5xMfaIsOExCvAmc47dxYsAWCANDH1pnekc9FK0iFzfDCzA_aem_9seXbMxVDLb6mgo1F3aZpw
Wondering the same. I always soak them overnight then boil in the IP for just 25 minutes or steam for twice that. Truthfully steaming vs boiling... I don't see any difference. I actually prefer to boil because it is both quicker and I like to save the bean broth as free and nutritious soup stock.
Perhaps the key to this method working is the length of time the beans are steamed for because I’ve never heard of steaming the beans this long except for his method.
Will it work for everyone? It's more likely that he has the natto bacteria around in his environment because he has been using and making natto. I'm sure his hands and the air around him have plenty of Bacillus Subtilis.
so bacillus subtilis doesn't just float around in all households? maybe it does: "Bacillus subtilis is a ubiquitous bacterium commonly recovered from water, soil, air, and decomposing plant residue. The bacterium produces an endospore that allows it to endure extreme conditions of heat and desiccation in the environment."
@@werewasyo Bacteria compete. This is why a starter is required. The idea is to have more Bacillus Subtilis spores and help them overpower the other. I have no idea of how this actually works, but it is my guess - because it is not easy to make natto without a starter. Using Soy beans gives a slight advantage to the right bacteria maybe.
I have followed his directions and he is not using a natto starter, and it came out ok but when I used my yogurt maker and I got a lot more stickiness and no natto starter and it tasted much better but when I made my next batch I used my own starter from the first batch I made and it was true natto but without the problem of the regurgitation reflex
It will work. Sourdough also works for everyone. It might need some practice to make it perfect but fermenting works for everyone. Same with Kimchi oder Sauerkraut or what ever other beans, grains or vegetables/fruits you want to ferment.
@@marymitchell5675 "regurgitation reflex" is what i cannot stand either. i think it is due to the nitrogen perhaps from all the non-natto bacteria that are competing with the natto bacteria. When i buy the little packs of premade natto from the asian grocery, i don't have the gag reflex issue or smell.
We need the beans cooked until soft, right? How would the old japanese cooks do without the modern pressure pan? As of the yogurt maker, again, you already have one: your old all purpose kitchen oven. Just set your all purpose kitchen oven to 40 to 45 ⁰C, let the stuff you want fermented stay there until it ferments (24 hours?) and gives the result you are pursuing. Please, never forget we need to learn with the bests teacher ever: YOUR HANDS ON THE JOB and let the learning comes into your brains. The steps shown in the vídeo is a good stating point, but nothing like hands on.
Please talk about how to store it, how long does it stay fresh, etc. People like me that don't know natto have no idea. I'm wondering if I can even swallow a spoonful let alone eat that whole pot!
UPDATE: It didn't work for me. I repeated the steps with a tiny bit of store bought natto and it spread throughout nicely I have beans soaking now, starting this method tomorrow. If it works I'll update in a couple days 🤞🤞
Didn't work for me. And realistically, it shouldn't work if you think about it. The only way it could work is if it was somehow contaminated with the bacteria in the environment. As stated by another poster, he's probably got spores floating around in his home from previous batches. I guess I'll try the starter for a few batches and see if I can get the spores built up on my environment.
@@Ananimous7777 That's always been an option, and I have inoculated with store bought natto with great success. Actually, I only used the store bought natto one time and now am saving a small portion of each batch I make for further inoculations. But this wasn't the point of my comment in the first place. The video seemed to imply that there is no need for an inoculum. But I argue that there is. The old guy probably doesn't thoroughly wash his utensils from one batch to the other and there are residual spores getting introduced back into the next batch.
@@jeffreyvosburgh2099 yeah i was wondering the same thing. also, he adds steaming hot soybeans into the pot and closes the lid. I'm surprised that the remaining trapped steam didn't kill the spores inside the pot. do you atleast let the soybeans cool down to about 120F before adding the store bought natto?
@@jeffreyvosburgh2099 also found this: so bacillus subtilis doesn't just float around in all households? maybe it does: "Bacillus subtilis is a ubiquitous bacterium commonly recovered from water, soil, air, and decomposing plant residue. The bacterium produces an endospore that allows it to endure extreme conditions of heat and desiccation in the environment."
@@werewasyo I didn't measure the temperature, but they were set out on the strainer in the open air for a short while. I wasn't hot enough to kill spores.

Everywhere on the internet it is said natto cannot be created without bacillus subtilis and that this type of bacteria does not exist on the beans themselves and must be added. I see the end result looks like natto and from what I get is the cooking water cannot contain any bacillus subtilis. Does anyone understand more clearly?
I also don't understand how this works. It could be different bacteria in this "natto" where it doesn't have Nattokinase and other things we want from natto.. Natto can be made basically from all grains and legumes. THe bacteria simply needs mainly proteins in that grain/legume it doesn't care if its white bean or soy bean.. But you still need some source of that specific bacteria and the easiest way is to buy natto in store and once you make your own natto you just put a side small amount of that natto for another batch.. I think making it without natto bacteria can be dangerous because you don't know what bacteria is growing in that food..
There's a chance this isn't really natto, and may not have the vitamin K or the nattokinase that most people seek from natto. It might be a Bacillus Subtilis species, but not Bacillus Subtilis sp natto. There's also a risk of non subtilis species, like Bacillus cereus which is potentially pathogenic. Just because it seems to "work" in creating slimey edible beans, research doesn't support the use of wild bacteria in home production as a wise approach.
Here's a study that isolated 424 strains of spore-forming microbes of the species Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens collected from rice straw in different regions across Japan. Of those 424 strains, only 57 (~14%) were able to successfully ferment the soybeans. The study mentions that γPGA production alone (responsible for the sticky texture) is not a predictor of the ability to ferment natto. In other words, some strains may produce γPGA and result in a sticky appearance, but they may still fail to fully ferment the soybeans properly.

Followed the instructions. No fermentation.
what happened with all the water? it's a pressure cooker...
Pressure steam for 3 hrs?! why so long?
@@TRUTHWINSALLWAYS I do 40 mins and it seems fine. 🤷♂
steam pressure for 3 hours...? is it a typo
Seems like WAY too long. I use an hour at most
Wondering the same. I always soak them overnight then boil in the IP for just 25 minutes or steam for twice that. Truthfully steaming vs boiling... I don't see any difference. I actually prefer to boil because it is both quicker and I like to save the bean broth as free and nutritious soup stock.
I use regular pressure cooker and steam 25 min.for small soybeans, 30min.for regular soybeans .
Perhaps the key to this method working is the length of time the beans are steamed for because I’ve never heard of steaming the beans this long except for his method.
Will it work for everyone? It's more likely that he has the natto bacteria around in his environment because he has been using and making natto. I'm sure his hands and the air around him have plenty of Bacillus Subtilis.
so bacillus subtilis doesn't just float around in all households? maybe it does:
"Bacillus subtilis is a ubiquitous bacterium commonly recovered from water, soil, air, and decomposing plant residue. The bacterium produces an endospore that allows it to endure extreme conditions of heat and desiccation in the environment."
@@werewasyo Bacteria compete. This is why a starter is required. The idea is to have more Bacillus Subtilis spores and help them overpower the other. I have no idea of how this actually works, but it is my guess - because it is not easy to make natto without a starter. Using Soy beans gives a slight advantage to the right bacteria maybe.
I have followed his directions and he is not using a natto starter, and it came out ok but when I used my yogurt maker and I got a lot more stickiness and no natto starter and it tasted much better but when I made my next batch I used my own starter from the first batch I made and it was true natto but without the problem of the regurgitation reflex
It will work. Sourdough also works for everyone. It might need some practice to make it perfect but fermenting works for everyone. Same with Kimchi oder Sauerkraut or what ever other beans, grains or vegetables/fruits you want to ferment.
@@marymitchell5675 "regurgitation reflex" is what i cannot stand either. i think it is due to the nitrogen perhaps from all the non-natto bacteria that are competing with the natto bacteria. When i buy the little packs of premade natto from the asian grocery, i don't have the gag reflex issue or smell.
We need the beans cooked until soft, right? How would the old japanese cooks do without the modern pressure pan?
As of the yogurt maker, again, you already have one: your old all purpose kitchen oven. Just set your all purpose kitchen oven to 40 to 45 ⁰C, let the stuff you want fermented stay there until it ferments (24 hours?) and gives the result you are pursuing.
Please, never forget we need to learn with the bests teacher ever: YOUR HANDS ON THE JOB and let the learning comes into your brains. The steps shown in the vídeo is a good stating point, but nothing like hands on.
Long ago ppl would boil or steam the soybeans for hours until the soybeans were soft, if you want to make it hands on u are free to do so.
Please talk about how to store it, how long does it stay fresh, etc. People like me that don't know natto have no idea. I'm wondering if I can even swallow a spoonful let alone eat that whole pot!
Keep a small portion in the fridge for eating in a week. Portion the rest in small containers and freeze them to store longer.
UPDATE: It didn't work for me.
I repeated the steps with a tiny bit of store bought natto and it spread throughout nicely
I have beans soaking now, starting this method tomorrow.
If it works I'll update in a couple days 🤞🤞
So, if the soy beans can turn into natto with its own boil-water, why is the world going after the 'starter'??
Didn't work for me. And realistically, it shouldn't work if you think about it. The only way it could work is if it was somehow contaminated with the bacteria in the environment. As stated by another poster, he's probably got spores floating around in his home from previous batches. I guess I'll try the starter for a few batches and see if I can get the spores built up on my environment.
Try adding ready to use natto, one or two spoons mix, and let jt be fermented... report back, please
@@Ananimous7777 That's always been an option, and I have inoculated with store bought natto with great success. Actually, I only used the store bought natto one time and now am saving a small portion of each batch I make for further inoculations. But this wasn't the point of my comment in the first place. The video seemed to imply that there is no need for an inoculum. But I argue that there is. The old guy probably doesn't thoroughly wash his utensils from one batch to the other and there are residual spores getting introduced back into the next batch.
@@jeffreyvosburgh2099 yeah i was wondering the same thing. also, he adds steaming hot soybeans into the pot and closes the lid. I'm surprised that the remaining trapped steam didn't kill the spores inside the pot.
do you atleast let the soybeans cool down to about 120F before adding the store bought natto?
@@jeffreyvosburgh2099 also found this: so bacillus subtilis doesn't just float around in all households? maybe it does:
"Bacillus subtilis is a ubiquitous bacterium commonly recovered from water, soil, air, and decomposing plant residue. The bacterium produces an endospore that allows it to endure extreme conditions of heat and desiccation in the environment."
@@werewasyo I didn't measure the temperature, but they were set out on the strainer in the open air for a short while. I wasn't hot enough to kill spores.
