Online Miso Making workshop (Lecture & Making Support)
Interested in making organic miso (variety of choice) via online Zoom lecture and Messenger support?
I am going to host a small pilot class (max 6 person) on 15 Aug (lecture) and 16 Aug (making).
【Class format】
The class is designed in the modular format. You can choose the component(s) based on your needs.
Component 1: Order your choice of miso
Component 2: In-depth Zoom lecture
Component 3: Making-Together support
Component 4: Miso cooking class (The date yet to be announced)
Component 1: Choose your choice of miso kit
Following miso kits are available to order. (Alternatively you can use your own ingredients. You need koji, soybeans and salt. I will advice you the quantity required. Please inquire. Variety of koji packs can be ordered from TKF website.)
- Sweet rice miso : Shorter fermentation time, sweet rice flavour, ideal for dipping sauce, dressing, marinating sauce etc.
- Standard rice miso：About 10 mths fermentation. During the fermentation, miso will develop deeper and more complex flavour so it is ideal for miso soup. Of course, you can use it in the same way as sweet rice miso. 80% of miso consumption in Japan is this type.
- Barley miso：About 10 mths fermentation. Miso will develop distinctive rich sweetness and deep umami. This type is very popular among Western people, probably because of the wheat/barley-based food culture.
- Red bean miso：About 10 mths fermentation, this type of miso is umami-rich.
NB: Please place the order well in advance to the scheduled lecture date.
