About Koji:
Since ancient times, rice has been the most important crop in Japan. Every village had a shrine where people would go to pray for a good harvest and good health.  Where there was a shrine, there was a koji-maker, who used the koji mold to ferment rice and soy beans to produce such Japanese staples as sake, soy sauce, miso, rice vinegar. With the industrialization of koji based products, artisanal koji makers have dwindled to about 1000.  In the last few years, Myoho Ansari of Saiki Kojiya has led the educational outreach about artisanal koji making traditions directly to Japanese cooks and chefs, who are now driving the renaissance in koji fermented foods.
