There a quiet a few instructions on the internet how to make tempeh. My first batch I did following these easy method instructions. This was the result.
I was not very happy with it. As you can see the tempeh is getting black spots and the whole hulled beans were not holding together very well. My thought is that the holes I punctured were not big enough … and maybe I should use a sterilised (poor hot water over it) picker.

I looked at the following two website for instructions.
I cannot fault the result. Absolutely delighted with this perfect tempeh. It became a white block after about 36 hours. I left it for another 12 hours and then peeled it away from the bag.
Hardly any black spots. The block is super solid and it smells divine. Nutty and fresh. So different from the first attempt. Where the block was falling apart. I am ashamed to have publish it. However think that it’s good to see how it should NOT be.
This second attempt Tempeh is superb. Without any spices this tempeh is delicious as a snack. Make sure you use coconut oil as this oil can stand much higher temperatures then olive oil. On top of it, coconut oil gives the tempeh a nice flavour.
