Come to this fun and interactive workshop to learn about koji. Koji just might be the incorporated ingredient that changes your view of food completely. Koji is steamed grain inoculated with the special mold, Aspergillus Oryzae. It is an essential ingredient for most Japanese seasonings. In this workshop, you will learn about this magic ingredient that makes foods flavorful and digestable. And we will make Shio Koji, your new favorite condiment. You will leave with a sampling of Shio Koji to take home and enjoy.
