Add Salt Koji Instead of Dashi

Add it to yaki udon or pasta sauce, or add it to curry or stew. By adding a spoonful of salted koji, the umami will increase and the overall taste will be harmonized. You can add it to hamburgers, simmered dishes, stir-fried dishes, etc.

Marinate Ingredients With Salt Koji

When protein ingredients such as meat and fish are soaked in salted koji, the enzyme will work to create a soft, rich-tasting finish. Put it in a storage bag to remove the air, and leave it in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days before using it. Any meat such as chicken, pork, beef, etc. is OK. You can also moisturize fish such as yellowtail, salmon, bonito, and tuna. If you want to marinade quickly, you can just soak the protein for a few hours. Of course, you can also pickle vegetables with salt koji such as cucumbers and radishes. Especially recommended for those who like sweet salty pickles.
