– LAZYBEAN

LAZYBEAN is a Hamburg-based food brand specializing in handcrafted, naturally fermented foods for plant-based cooking. Its range centers on soy-free tempeh, made with ingredients such as chickpeas, black beans, pumpkin seeds and sweet lupins. The brand also offers seasoned Lazy Hack and tempeh toppings, alongside limited-edition varieties and sampler packs that help customers discover different flavors and textures. Its tempeh is vegan and made without additives.

LAZYBEAN produces traditionally fermented, unpasteurized soy sauces, including a light variety, and sells dried koji rice for home fermentation and everyday cooking. Customers can use koji to prepare shio koji, miso or amazake, or add it to marinades and bread for extra umami. The assortment is rounded out with vegan hot sauces, spices and branded merchandise.

Through its online shop, LAZYBEAN also shares recipes and practical information about tempeh, soy sauce and koji, including preparation and storage guidance. The brand sells directly to consumers and provides information for food-service customers, bringing small-batch fermented products from Hamburg into home kitchens.
