Difficulty Level 3

  Making this culture not to hard, but some equipment helps to make the process easier.  A temperature controled dehydrator aids in keeping the temperature around 80 deg F, which is a must.  Also, you must have plastic bags in which holes have been punched out.  Time frame is soaking the soybeans, dehauling, and then cooking them a couple of hours.  Once cooled, the culture is added and kept warm for 24 to 48 hours.   This part can be tricky, as if the temperature is off the batch may not form well or may overheat and become black.  Finished product may be used fresh or frozon for later use.

 Level 3 difficulty because of the heating & packaging details required.
