"Shio" is salt. "Koji" is rice that has been inoculated and aged with the Aspergillus oryzae
spore, and is what gives many Japanese condiments their deep flavor and umami. So many
of the well-known Japanese condiments rely on the transformative effects of koji and its enzymes. The natural production of soy sauce, miso, amazake, sake, mirin would not be possible without koji.
Shio Koji is basically salt and rice that has been mixed and fermented to the point that
it itself becomes a condiment itself. Shio koji has a wide range of benefits, practical
uses, and can be easily made into a go-to condiment for chefs working with any style of cuisine.
Shio Koji's effects on food:
Improves nutrition
Increases ease of digestion
Increases umami and sweetness
Food is able to be preserved for longer periods of time
