Summer tempeh!

PictureChanna dal and sunflower tempeh

​Summer is the best time to be making tempeh, especially if you live in the tropics, where there is every chance you will be able to open ferment your tempeh covered with a damp cloth or beeswax wrap. Check your overnight temperature wont fall below 23 degrees, or cover with a folded towel or put in esky  to keep warm overnight. 
A reminder that fresh tempeh needs to be cooked before eating or frozen fresh then cooked after defrosting.


I am really pleased to see so many people trying new things in their kitchens. It gives us great control over the quality and availability of food stuffs when we embrace 'make your own.'  Food security is becoming a world wide issue. Affordable plant based proteins offer a sustainable solution, especially when we can store beans and legumes with out refrigeration for long periods of time, and create a variety of easily digestible, high protein, vegan tempehs and tofu. 
There are concerns about protein content in diets that replace meat with legume products. While the protein content of soy tempeh is less than chicken and pork, it is the same as beef but with NO FAT. The advantage of eating tempeh is that the protein is more available to absorption in the gut due to the fermentation process. Lupin tempeh contains protein in higher levels than meat. You may need to supplement your diet with B12 if your protein is totally plant based.
Just a reminder from Norah, she is running an online tempeh workshop this weekend:
Look after each other and stay well,

Tempeh starter: Tempeh was recognised by the government of Indonesia as a national cultural heritage in October 2017 and  will be proposed as a Unesco intangible cultural heritage in 2021. The of making rhizopus oligosporus (tempeh starter) has been a closely guarded cultural secret. Please note: there is no production of rhizopus oligosporus in Australia.
Our tempeh starter is pre mixed with rice flour to ensure even distribution of mycelium growth in your tempeh. 

Tofu Coagulants: Food grade, sourced and packaged in Australia. 

Packaging: We have reduced the amount of paper and plastic used by changing to lined unbleached Kraft paper pouches for starters and coagulants, heat sealed and with best before dates. (Best before dates are a guideline only and can be extended by keeping your starter in the freezer.) We have changed to envelopes made from 100% recycled paper and are constantly working to source more environmentally friendly packaging, baskets and presses.
