Jump to Event Details

Join Washtenaw Food Hub with Mason Sharpe for a workshop on the art of making koji. Koji is a traditional fermentation culture used to create a variety of foods and to make meats and other ingredients more digestible. In this class, you’ll learn how koji can be made with local grains and used to ferment a wide range of whole foods. It’s also one of the key ways to develop rich umami flavor in many dishes while adding depth, nutrients, and complexity. Recipes and examples will be provided to help you start experimenting with koji in your own kitchen.

The event is free, but advanced registration is appreciated.
