## Description

desertcart.com : UMAMI Salt Koji – Premium Japanese Liquid Shio Koji | Gluten-Free Fermented Seasoning | White Koji Paste for Miso, Marinade, Sauce (6.35oz) : Grocery & Gourmet Food

Review: Game changer as a marinade - I followed some Youtube videos for a koji marinated prime rib, and boy did it change the game. I marinated it overnight and it really brought out a lot of umami flavor to the beef, and I felt it tenderized the meat as well. Will try again with other meats. It is a little expensive and I later realized my local Japanese market sells it for about 1/2 the price. BUT for people who do not have that option, I think it's great to be able to find it on desertcart!
Review: Makes your beef delicious - Makes your beef even more delicious and tender. WOW- every time I use this, my family comments on how tender and delicious the beef is. I normally grill NY Strip, so it is already good- but this throws it over the top. I use this as a marinade in addition to other spices, etc.

## Features

- ✅【What is Shio Koji?】Shio Koji is a fermented seasoning made from koji and salt. Compared to regular salt, Shio Koji offers a much richer umami flavor, adding a deeper taste to any dish. When used as a marinade for meat, the enzymes in koji help make it incredibly tender and juicy.
- ✅【Fermented in a Traditional Miso Brewery】Our Shio Koji is crafted in a traditional miso brewery located in Nikko, Tochigi, Japan. Mr. Jinbo, a dedicated fourth-generation brewer, is passionate about preserving traditional fermentation culture while constantly exploring new knowledge. With his deep love for koji, he carefully makes our Shio Koji using the pure underground water of Nikko and his sincere enthusiasm. The result is an exceptional Shio Koji with a truly unique flavor.
- ✅【How to Use ①】Marinade for Meat and Fish: Use Shio Koji as a marinade to tenderize and enhance the flavor of meats and fish. Coat the protein evenly, let it marinate for a few hours or overnight, then cook as usual for juicy and flavorful results!
- ✅【How to Use ②】Seasoning for Vegetables: Toss vegetables with a small amount of Shio Koji before roasting, grilling, or stir-frying. It adds a rich umami flavor and brings out the natural sweetness of the vegetables.
- ✅【How to Use ③】Salad Dressing: Mix Shio Koji with olive oil, vinegar, and your favorite herbs to create a savory and tangy salad dressing that elevates the taste of fresh greens.
- ✅【How to Use ④】Soup Base: Add a spoonful of Shio Koji to soups, stews, or broths to deepen the flavor. It works well with miso soup, chicken broth, and vegetable soups, adding a mild saltiness and umami kick.
- ✅【How to Use ⑤】Rice or Grain Enhancer: Stir Shio Koji into cooked rice, quinoa, or other grains for a subtle flavor boost. It pairs well with mixed grains, adding complexity and a hint of savory depth to simple dishes.
- ✅【Storage Instructions】Store in a cool, dry place. To maintain freshness, refrigerate after opening and consume promptly.
