    Koji is a type of fungus that has been used in Japan for thousands of years to make various fermented foods, including soy sauce, miso, sake, and more. In this 2.5-hour workshop, you will learn about the fascinating history and cultural significance of koji in Japan.

    You will discover the various techniques and ingredients used to create koji and its many applications in cooking.
