This traditional Japanese seasoning paste produced by Marukome, is made from fermented rice, salt and water. It is a popular ingredient in Japanese cooking, known for its ability to enhance the natural umami flavour and sweetness of ingredients.
Marukome is one of Japan's leading producers of fermented products, including miso and koji; this shio koji is a convenient, high-quality version of this ancient seasoning. Packed with umami, the savoury taste that enhances flavours naturally, this makes it a great alternative to other flavour enhancers such as soy sauce or salt.
Koji (Rice Malt)
Koji is steamed rice inoculated with Aspergillus oryzae, a beneficial mold used in many Japanese fermentations (like miso, sake and soy sauce). It breaks down the starches in the rice into sugars and amino acids.
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Refrigerate once opened.
