Considering experimenting with making my own Natto... but isn't *soy* always produced far away/imported? Isn't it one such cultures that (especially intensified) do ruin the soil?

Is there a way, like tempeh, to make natto out of peas, beans, lentils (more local)?

@jz i know that there are soybeans grown ecologically here in germany which you can buy, eg. rapunzel.de/soja-bohnen-aus-de

i don't know if it works with other legumes

@jz kein problem :) diese kleinen reformhausläden haben manchmal echt ganz gute sachen, lohnt sich da ab uns zu mal hinzugehn :)

wo kriegst du denn die bakterien zum natto animpfen her?

@bonifartius hehe i know, i often go there... but was surprised to NOT find the soy beans there... will look further, thanks!

For the starter i am still in my preliminary phase of research... found this nattostarter.com/makenatto.php in the EU. If you have any other source i am interested!
