    Thank you for sharing the above simple tutorial on how to make Koji at home.
    I don't have Koji, yet. Like all living species, this Aspergillus Oryzae fungus (mold of Koji) is also regional thing. Right now, I am starting to collect Kome Koji from many different parts of the world to see if they have the same strength, flavor, etc. Your Kome Koji looks very good, clean, and white, and it will be a good candidate. So, I wonder if it is possible for you to send me some (about 10 grains) of Kome Koji so I can start to incubate to produce more? This way, I can make some Koji comparison obtained from other parts of the world. It probably weights no more than 3 grams and will probably cost you about the stamp of an International post mail. If you decide to do so, I certainly will appreciate that. Thank you.

    An important question: how to make koji starter? Of course this yeast is in naturally.

    • @gabriellesothern6981
      @gabriellesothern6981 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Paulo Emmer the thing about making a wild koji mould starter is it’s way more risky you’ll be giving poisonous moulds just as much change to take root in your starter and also the wild and not domesticated strains actually do have more difficult to digest and negative properties from what I’ve read. Doesn’t mean it’s impossible and doesn’t mean you shouldn’t want to cultivate a wild strain instead. I can’t remember where the koji mould is found wild but the tempeh one is in corn husks, maybe it’s found in a leaf used for wrapping too? Or wheat even? We use wild strains of so much from wheat, yeasts, bacterias why not mould too...

    • @gabriellesothern6981
      @gabriellesothern6981 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      The yeast is in the air, but to make koji you need mould. The starter you buy and add to cultivate more of your own at home is dried mushroom of the strain Aspergillus Oryzae

    • @jimlarsen6782
      @jimlarsen6782 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Actually mushroom and fungi are cousins, but are enemies. Aspergillus oryzae is fungus of edible sort. Used to make soy sauce etc..

      No. Koji is made from a specific mold. Other molds which may grow naturally can be toxic. The name of the mold you need is aspergillus oyarze. In the old days they used to use rice straw to inoculate the cooked rice with mold spores but this is not safe.

    • @rurururumiko
      @rurururumiko  5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Good temperature for koji is less than 40degrees C (104degrees Fac
      If you aim for high-quality koji, I think that it is better to control the temperature of rice.
      In this movie, I introduced a method to easily make it at home even for people who have never made koji.
      Many of the reasons for the failure of the beginner I think are thought to be too careful of the temperature of rice and as a result of putting too much hands on it, the temperature drops and the koji does not breed sufficiently.
      Please adjust to keep this temperature in your system.ebook).
