Hello! This is Tenbusu Organic Market☆

Today, we introduce a versatile kitchen MVP that will instantly level up your cooking: “Yasaka Organic Shio-Koji!”

This shio-koji is a traditional fermented seasoning made by adding salt and water to carefully nurtured organic white rice malt (koji). It is incredibly easy to use—simply add it to pickles, stews, or stir-fries. The power of enzymes like protease and amylase found in the koji breaks down proteins in meat and fish to make them amazingly tender, while bringing out the maximum umami from natural amino acids and glutamic acid.

What’s even better are the numerous health and beauty benefits. It is rich in B vitamins that assist energy metabolism and support recovery from daily fatigue. Since it contains lactic acid bacteria and oligosaccharides that increase good bacteria in the gut, it also leads to improved immunity. Additionally, the kojic acid and B vitamins help suppress melanin production, making it a great ally for beautiful skin and anti-spot care.

While the salt content is modest—about one-fourth that of regular salt—it provides deep richness and flavor, making a healthy, low-sodium lifestyle easy and delicious. The enzymes aid digestion and reduce the burden on your stomach, coloring your daily meals with health and flavor. Why not invite this all-purpose seasoning, packed with the wisdom of nature, into your home?
