Tempeh, a traditional Indonesian food, is traditionally prepared from soybeans fermented by a microscopic fungus.

The result is a plant-based protein rich in fibre, low in fat, with a delicious taste of hazelnuts and mushrooms. Tempeh can be made from any type of legume: beans, peas, broad beans, chickpeas, lentils... It's time to explore!

Perfection on the first try!

I followed the tempeh instructions from Revolution Fermentation , and I used this starter culture. The outcome is stellar. I made a chick pea, kamut, and sesame and sunflower tempeh. Thank you.

Learning experience

I had a few rough starts with this starter but after contacting the friendly helpful people at Fermentation Revolution I was able to make a great batch of tempeh. They responded with insightful questions and helped me troubleshoot. I did find I needed a bit more of the spores than the instructions indicated but was happy with my results.

Excellent

I bought this and have used it twice with my new proofer. It worked perfectly. The instruction videos are very helpful too. Homemade tempeh is so much more delicious.

Worked perfectly

Used this to make adzuki bean tempeh a while ago and it worked perfectly. Grew quick and easily

Worked perfectly - delicious tempeh

Tempeh is certainly a bit tricky to make but the starter worked perfectly. Made two huge bricks of tempeh just like in the pictures. Homemade tempeh seriously tastes way way better than anything I've bought in the store as well. Definitely worth it.
