Koji rice is a preparation made from two ingredients: rice and the Aspergillus oryzae fungus. Combining the fungus (in powder form) with cooked rice produces a white mould on the surface of the rice, which is capable of transforming simple raw materials such as rice into unique products: miso, sake kasu, amazake, soya sauce and shio koji (enzymatic fermentation). As a ‘fermented food’, it is extremely rich in enzymes produced by the mycelium of the Aspergillus genus. It opens up new horizons in cooking and will soon become an essential ingredient in every professional kitchen, thanks in part to its supply of enzymes for truly original ‘fermentations’.
Our Koji is sold in a recycled and recyclable aluminium tin, with a green bioplastic bag made from sugar cane, 100% plastic-free.
