Fine And High-Quality Bleached Cloth That Utilizes Traditional Techniques
This is a 3pc set of bleached cotton cloth, manufactured by Yoshida Textiles since 1936 in Tsubame City, Niigata Prefecture.
This is a soft, high-quality cotton cloth with fine threads. The color can be a little yellowish because it doesn’t use fluorescent dye. Since it’s made from 100% Japanese cotton without optical brightener, it is perfectly safe to use.
The material is soft and won’t easily damage food. Feel free to use it to make homemade koji.
Uses Non-fluorescent Japanese cotton
This cloth doesn’t use optical brightener (fluorescent dye) during manufacturing. This fact is acknowledged after inspection by Niigata Prefectural Institute of Environmental Sanitation.
Yoshida textiles manufacture their products in Japan. A local spinning company also manufactured the yarn.
Compatible with Koji Tray Size M and L
This polypropylene cloth is made in a size that matches the Koji Tray size M that you can use with the Koji fermenter. You can wrap the koji with this single polypropylene cloth 94 x 100cm.
Even with the L size Koji Tray, you can use it just right by using two cotton cloths, laying one underneath, and covering the other on the top. Choose the right size of Koji Tray and Polypropylene Cloth before making your own koji to produce the perfect one!
Since this cotton cloth is made from 100% cotton which is the same as the main material as cheesecloth, this cotton cloth can be used as a cheesecloth that originally used to drain and wrap curds during the cheese-making process as well. This cotton cloth will perform its function as well as your cheesecloth in general.
Due to its versatility, it has grown to be used for a variety of food preparation tasks and has become one of the most useful tools you can keep in your kitchen, not only for making koji and cheese. Please use the versatility of this product by all means!
