I just finished reading Noma's Guide to Fermentation, built a fermentation chamber with a speed rack, plastic covering, humidifier, humidistat, space heater, and temperature controller. I'll be making my first "Peaso" this weekend; however, this masterclass has opened my eyes to the extreme diversity of koji's culinary application. Koji's popularity in America is on the rise, and this lesson is at the forefront.

Just a heads up, the kōji (こうじ/麹) is the malted result obtained from growing a mold culture (Aspergillus oryzae) on rice. Chinese people use 米麴 to refer to the same thing. If you talk about "Aspergillus oryzae" you have to use kōji-kin (こうじきん/麹菌) which is made from the Chinese 麴菌 literally meaning "Aspergillus mold". In short koji = koji-kin + rice

Thank-you very much Meredith for sharing your knowledge with us. I have just received my pack of koji-kin (from Japan) and can't wait to start growing my own koji, I am from Cape Town, South Africa and I only discovered koji a few weeks ago, koji is not really known by us, so I was not able to find a fresh supply anywhere, so I can't wait to get my koji growing. Once again Thank-you for this wonderful presentation, I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Msg lowers requirement of salt to achieve the same salt perception. MSG is a type of amino acid or broken down protein. There is every reason other broken down proteins will have the ability to enhance flavour without much salt.

I also loved your incubator, as I was trying to figure out a cost effective way to make one. Have you experimented with other starch sources? I am particularly interested in potatoes since I have a surplus right now.

I am using a tempeh that has been dehydrated and powdered in the blender to try to inoculate rice to start my own koji rice. Am I dreaming? I have it in the dehydrator lowest setting with a bowl of water on the rack under it. I have my chick pea miso inoculated mashed chick peas waiting in the fridge for my koji rice.. In a year I guess I will know.

Would you ever first apply the shio koji/amazake and THEN do a lactoferment? If yes, then how? I was thinking it would be interesting to marinate för example kimchi before it goes to it's lactoferment.

I didn't understand, how can I make the Koji without salt, I am on a low salt diet no matter how you say it reduces how much you add, for those who are on low salt diets there is no such thing as 'adding salt', if I drizzle koji that has a teaspoon of salt in it I am in trouble. How do you make the koji without salt

leigh search for formagge which turned to be frommage I don't know but it's an old language which we lost it's criteria through it's transcription though I'm sure it is the real science of mold or koji the good mold which is a friend to haemoglobin in human blood .So it can be a mold in formmage ( using grain branes )or a mold in cream of tartar that is growing mold in other words using soft phylum as water chestnut ,asparagus,celery,etc how can you feed them both ?you can use the sweet liquor comes from a dehydration process as pumpkins but be careful don't fridge them it will turn into fungi of course you can use any sap except the sugar cane .oh I forgot to tell you that when you feed them too much sweetie tweet it will form yeast that is formed to most successful bakeries .It is science that's why they call it magic cause however and wherever you perform it you will get different result .For instance once barefoot contessa asked her viewers to put brioche dough into fridge then I make it as she said then I noticed that she is living in a different zone than mine and outer of the fridge is so warm it can kill the yeast so she put it in the fridge.Leigh you are so lucky everything around you acknowledge the source of sciences ; my prayers remember rushes or red spots means allergy and allergy can cure failure organs and so on the chain of species has a chain of micro-organism,stay healthy and leave wealthy.

Yeah, just like we use arsenic, strychnine and Ricin to make lots of yummy foods today. But don't worry we'll evolve together and it won't kill us anymore!🤦♂️
