Meet UMAMI Salt Koji
Our Shio Koji is crafted from rice grown with environmentally mindful methods and finished in a traditional Japanese miso brewery. The koji is paired with natural sea salt to create a fermented seasoning that presents a nuanced balance of savory depth and gentle saltiness. Packaged in a 17.6 oz jar, it’s designed to be a long-lasting ally in a busy kitchen, inviting experimentation without overpowering the dish.
From the moment you open the jar, you may notice a mellow aroma that hints at umami and warmth. The texture is smooth enough to spread or whisk, yet substantial enough to cling to proteins and vegetables alike. This blend is designed to meld with your ingredients, letting their natural flavors come forward in harmony rather than competing for attention.
What makes Shio Koji special
- Rich umami with a balanced salt profile that layers into sauces, soups, and marinades.
- Enzymes in koji help tenderize meats, supporting juiciness when used in marinades.
- Gluten-free formulation crafted from rice and salt, suitable for a wide range of diets.
Ways to use UMAMI Salt Koji
- Marinate beef, chicken, pork, or seafood to increase moisture and depth of flavor.
- Create miso-like sauces, dressings, and dipping sauces with a savory backbone.
- Add to soups, stews, and roasted vegetables to boost complexity without added saltiness.
- Use as a finishing glaze for grilled dishes to impart a subtle sheen and aroma.
Craft, sustainability, and quality

Each batch emphasizes consistency, so you can rely on it as a versatile ingredient across recipes.
