📖 More about the product
What is Shio Koji?
Shio Koji is a fermented seasoning paste or liquid from Japanese cuisine that is traditionally made from rice, salt and water using the Koji mushroom. The fermentation process creates enzymes that break down proteins and starches - this ensures tender meat, a deep umami flavor and a natural sweetness.
Why is HANAMARUKI Ekitai Shio Koji so special?
In contrast to the classic paste, the liquid version of Hanamaruki offers easy dosage and longer shelf life. It is vegan, lactose and gluten free and contains no artificial additives. Their versatility makes them an indispensable basis in creative cuisine.
Wide range of uses
Whether as a marinade for meat or fish, as a dressing ingredient or a sophisticated note in desserts - Shio Koji gives every dish depth, balance and a harmonious aroma. Particularly exciting: When combined with soy sauce, a naturally fermented sauce with a complex flavor profile is created.
The Hanamaruki brand
Hanamaruki is one of Japan's best-known traditional producers of fermented products. The company has stood for quality, authenticity and innovation in koji production for over 100 years.
