Our Fermented Soy Bean Paste Process

The fermentation process of soybean paste is an art that blends taste, nutrition, and tradition into a wonderful procedure. Here are the general steps:

  1. Selecting Ingredients: High-quality non-GMO soybeans and wheat are the primary ingredients. Soybeans provide protein while wheat adds rich flavors.
  2. Soaking and Grinding: Soybeans are soaked in water until they are fully hydrated and then ground into a mixture of tofu and soy pulp.
  3. Steaming: The ground soybeans and wheat are steamed to ensure the ingredients are thoroughly cooked and more conducive to fermentation.
  4. Inoculation: Fermentation cultures, such as Aspergillus oryzae, are introduced to the steamed mixture. These cultures start breaking down starches and proteins in the soybeans and wheat into sugars and amino acids.
  5. Fermentazione: The mixture with the introduced cultures is kept at a constant temperature to ferment, usually for several months. During this phase, the flavor gradually develops, the color deepens, and a balance of sour, dolce, salato, and umami tastes is achieved.
  6. Maturation: After fermentation, the soybean paste further matures, which can increase the complexity of its flavor and consistency in quality.
  7. Seasoning and Packaging: Following fermentation and maturation, additional seasonings may be added to the soybean paste according to specific recipes for flavor adjustment, followed by packaging for sale.Each step is critical and together forms a long-standing traditional craft, bringing forth this unique and passionate flavor. This traditional fermentation method not only imparts a distinctive flavor to the soybean paste but also enhances its value as a health food.
