Gluten Free Liquid Shio Koji

Steak that was chewy from same batch.Really good and tender.Marinated 2 hrs, sous vide 1.75 hrs at 133degs, pat dry, salt pepper garlic , seared with torch.WOW great flavor

Adds the best flavor to any dish.

Good Umami Seasoning. More convenient to use that the solid Shio Koji rice form.

It seemed to be a little saltier than I expected. It does tenderize the meat well and adds good flavor. I just need to learn how to use it a little better.

Great product

If you don’t know anything about Koji - especially if you don’t, buy this immediately and transform every protein you cook into absolute ambrosia. I used it on a New York strip steak from a full roast. I had been struggling with steaks from this particular roast and simply couldn’t make them tender. It always turned out like boot leather, and im really good with meat on the smoker. After just one night marinating in Shio Koji, that previously almost inedible cut was transformed into the best beef I had ever eaten. It topped any minon or Kobi. Just hang on to your seat when you use won those cuts from a good butcher. I even marinade my pork belly in Shio Koji before dry curing and smoking - best bacon ever. The science and art of Koji is fascinating, and you should get the book Koji Alchemy, but you don’t have to know anything to use this. Just soak everything in it for a day or two. That’s literally all it takes to turn the mundane into a masterpiece. Shio Koji really is magic.

After I bought the first bottle, I ordered 3 more and now am ordering again. I love this stuff. I use instead of salt in everything - soup, stew, stir-fry, marinade, salad dressing, even a splash in my cookie dough. Just wish Amazon got the multi-packs!

Not what I thought
