I found some instructions online for making sun-brewed soy sauce at home. So far I have:
- Found 2 pounds of organic soybeans
- Cooked them
- Mashed the cooked beans together with flour – made a dough
- Separated the dough into flat patties
- Left the patties out in my computer room to purposefully grow mold
- Set them out in the sun to let them finish drying out
I guess that after the soybean cakes dry out, I’m supposed to put them in a bucket, cover them with a brine solution, and then set the bucket out in the sun for a couple months.
I’ll update on the progress from time to time.
Picture unrelated. Just wanted you to know that I'm not ALL work.

[...] I was cleaning up the garden and back yard. I noticed the bucket in which I had begun a project to ferment some homemade soy sauce. [...]

My project was a failure! Sorry, but I cannot advise on shortening the time span.
