Guess I should start posting my old videos here, and maybe get back to making new ones.
This is from Feb 2023 of a #sourdough tianmanjiang I started in 2021.
I can even post a link to the logbook!

Garum made with chicken breast, koji rice, water, and 8% salt. This was done at 140F over the course of 3 weeks.
The garum itself was used similar to soy sauce. The solids used as a miso(we coined it meatso) and primarily used for flavored butter.

I have an idea related to cured egg yolks 🤔
Thinking of dusting them with dried and powdered koji before dunking in salt. Surely that's gotta turn out better.

Happy Thanksgiving!
I am thankful that no one thought my turkey was "weird", even though it was dry-brined with some shio koji and slathered with miso herb butter. They loved it!

Recently we hosted a great koji workshop with Rich Shih, the co-author of Koji Alchemy. That was his first time visiting Dubai, but definitely not the last!

I found my miso-style doubanjiang while preparing for a move and finished the logbook!
This paste is really incredible, worth every one of the four years it was hiding behind my other ferments.
