The science behind tempe

By : Souha and Reihana

introduction

At YIS, the school decided to do a science fair project for grades 3-6. But since this pandemic is still going on, it would be impossible to do it at school. So, it is going to be a virtual science fair. We are a group of 2 people. Reihana, from grade 6 and Souha, from grade 5. Tempe is going to be our topic for this virtual science fair. Do you like tempe? You can find it almost anywhere in Indonesia. Tempe is affordable, packed with proteins, vitamins and minerals, and also comes with a lot of health benefits.
