The disclosure discloses a method for producing long-chain glycosylated genistein and belongs to the technical fields of enzyme engineering and fermentation engineering. The disclosure provides a method for producing long-chain glycosylated genistein. By using this method to produce long-chain glycosylated genistein, the content of long-chain glycosylated genistein in a reaction solution and the ratio of the content of long-chain glycosylated genistein in the reaction solution to the content of total glycosylated genistein in the reaction solution can be increased. The content of long-chain glycosylated genistein in the reaction solution can be increased to 10.3 g/L, and the ratio of the content of long-chain glycosylated genistein in the reaction solution to the content of total glycosylated genistein in the reaction solution can be increased to 70%.
