Made by pulverizing dried rice koji, this powdered type of rice koji is much easier to use than regular rice koji. Rice koji, generally called malted rice, breaks down proteins and starch into sugar and amino acids, and because of this, it can extract the sweetness from any ingredient while tenderizing it at the same time. Made with organically grown rice, Marukura’s Organic Brown Rice Koji Powder not only helps you make shio koji (fermented salty rice seasoning) and amazake (a non-alcoholic fermented rice drink), it can also be used directly for marinating meat, fish, and vegetables or even mixed into baked items.
Each bag holds 2.47 oz
Ingredients: Brown Rice.
