My wife likes to use this product to make shio koji and shoyu koji paste. It lasts long and good quality.

5.0 out of 5 stars Still Pricey But Better Value Than Than Premade Amazake

If you're buying it to make amazake 甘酒, what you can get out of a bag is cheaper than buying those pre-made pouches where you get 2 servings at most. Probably can save even more buying 2 bags at a time, but this was my first attempt at making amazake, and I was intimidated out of buying 2kg at once.

The amazake I was able to make with this using an instant pot method was perfect. Just as sweet as the pre-made pouches I had previously purchased on Amazon where you just add hot water. I enjoyed drinking the amazake as well as using it as a sweetener in my cream of rice. I recommend trying fresh ginger in your amazake. The spice from ginger is a nice contrast to the sweetness of the amazake.

At a local Asian market, 567g of rice Koji is approximately $10. Compare to that item, Miyako Koji is more expensive. But, I don’t mind paying a little extra for a made in Japan product especially this product is perfect to make Amazake. I am looking forward making Miso using this product soon!

It’s not bad, doesn’t have much of a flavor or that sweet, funky, floral aroma you expect from koji, it’s just pretty neutral and has a slightly artificial sweet scent. Ended up using it make my own from fresh cooked rice that turned out miles better.

5.0 out of 5 stars New to Koji? This is a great starting product

Got this because I wanted to get into Koji and use it to "dry age" meats. I scrutinized whether this was aspergillus oryzae or not like the one offered from Cold Mountain but it wound up not mattering much.

What I do to make the Koji powder is blend this rice in a blender until completely powdered. Pop that in a small plastic container and it can keep at room temp for several months.

Then when I'm ready to use it, I generally coat the entire surface with the flour and pop the meat in the fridge. Before cooking be sure to rinse all of the Koji off using cold water.

I haven't had the chance to use the flour to inoculate my own grains yet. But I'm pretty sure it would still work.

Anyway this stuff made the best steak I've ever had. It just enhances the flavors that are already present. You might get some more flavor nuance depending on several things but this is a solid product.
