🧅✨ "Koji onions" Japanese easy fermentation, natural umami flavor, good for the intestines!

We didn't care much about microbes in food before... we studied Japanese fermentation culture and got to know the "Kochi" he used for thousands of years. 🍶

What is 💡 Kochi?

Kochi is a type of Japanese fungus (Aspergillus oryzae) that is cultivated on rice to help digest starch into sugar and create enzymes that are good for the body. The Japanese have used it to make miso soup, shoyu and sake for centuries.

We try to ferment koji with onions according to the recipe made by the Japanese villagers, and it is a kind of umami, sour, slightly salty, fragrant, and can be used instead of a dressing or top on rice. 🍚💕

📌 raw materials:

1. 1 chopped onion

2.Koji Rice (Shio Koji) 2 tablespoons

3. Hand-picked salt

🧑‍🍳 How to do it:

1. It's easier than this, no more. 😅

2. Add a dozen to ferment for 1-2 days (cool, not exposed to the sun)

3. When you start to smell lightly fermented, you can put it in the fridge.

🌿 Benefits:

• Increased fine microbes in the gut

• Digestive aids

• Balancing the excretory system

• Supplement food flavors without MSG

✨ Let's start taking care of ourselves in the traditional Japanese natural way ~

When eating mixed with the fermented slices, leave enough to be salted, then eat, can add fried rice or fried vegetables.

... Read moreหลายคนทักมาถามว่า “ข้าวโคจิ” ที่ใช้ทำโคจิหัวหอมคืออะไร แล้วต้องเลือกแบบไหนถึงหมักออกมาอร่อย เราสรุปจากที่ลองทำเองให้แบบเข้าใจง่ายนะคะ ข้าวโคจิ (Koji rice) คือข้าวที่เพาะเชื้อโคจิ (Aspergillus oryzae) จนเกิดเอนไซม์ธรรมชาติ ช่วยย่อยแป้ง/โปรตีนให้กลายเป็นรสหวานนัวๆ และอูมามิ เวลาเอามาหมักกับหัวหอมจะช่วยดึงความหวานของหอมออกมา กลิ่นจะละมุนขึ้น และได้รสเค็มกลมกล่อมแบบญี่ปุ่น เวลาซื้อ “ข้าวโคจิ” จะเจอหลายแบบ แนะนำดู 2 จุดนี้ก่อนค่ะ 1) ถ้าจะทำแนวนี้ให้เลือก “ชิโอะโคจิ (Shio Koji)” แบบพร้อมใช้ จะเป็นเนื้อข้าวโคจิหมักเกลือมาแล้ว ตักผสมได้เลย สะดวกมาก 2) ถ้าได้ “ข้าวโคจิแบบแห้ง” ก็ใช้ได้เหมือนกัน แต่ต้องผสมน้ำและเกลือให้เหมาะก่อนถึงจะหมักลื่นๆ (มือใหม่เราแนะนำเริ่มจากแบบชิโอะโคจิก่อน โอกาสพลาดน้อย) ทริคให้โคจิหัวหอมออกมา “หอมอูมามิ” แบบในโหลแก้วที่เห็นในรูป - สับหอมใหญ่ให้ค่อนข้างละเอียด จะปล่อยน้ำออกมาเร็ว หมักไว และคลุกกับข้าวโคจิให้ทั่วถึง - ใช้โหลแก้วสะอาด แห้งสนิท (สำคัญมาก ลดโอกาสกลิ่นแปลก) - หมักไว้ในที่เย็น ไม่โดนแดด 1-2 วัน ถ้าอากาศร้อนมากให้เช็กตั้งแต่ 24 ชม. - ระหว่างหมักคนวันละครั้งให้รสเข้ากัน แล้วพอเริ่มมีกลิ่นหอมหมักอ่อนๆ ค่อยย้ายเข้าตู้เย็นเพื่อชะลอการหมัก วิธีเช็กว่า “ใช้ได้แล้ว” - กลิ่นควรหอมหวานนัวๆ ไม่ฉุนเหม็น - เนื้อจะดูนิ่ม ชุ่ม มีความหยาบสีอ่อนจากหอมใหญ่สับ - รสจะเค็มนิดๆ อูมามิ และมีเปรี้ยวเบาๆ ตามธรรมชาติ ไอเดียเอาไปใช้ (อันนี้ทำบ่อยมาก) - คลุกแตงกวาฝาน เติมงา/น้ำมันงาเล็กน้อย เป็นสลัดแตงกวาแบบญี่ปุ่นง่ายๆ - ใส่ข้าวผัดหรือผัดผักแทนซอสบางส่วน รสจะนัวขึ้นแบบไม่ต้องเติมผงชูรส - ทำเป็นเดรสซิ่ง: ผสมโคจิหัวหอม + น้ำมันมะกอก + น้ำเลมอนนิดเดียว ราดผัก/อกไก่ การเก็บรักษา: หลังย้ายเข้าตู้เย็นแล้ว เราใช้ให้หมดภายใน 1-2 สัปดาห์ รสจะยังดีและกลิ่นหอมอยู่ค่ะ (ถ้าเห็นรา สีผิดปกติ หรือกลิ่นแรงผิดไป ให้ทิ้งเพื่อความปลอดภัยนะคะ)
