• TK – ROCKIE is BACK.

  

  Hi Everyone. Yes indeed – i get my Roquefort project back. I m dealing with koji so much nowadays… and that’s a mould with spores and doing its thing. Well, there are the other ‘edible’ moulds from all around – and i m curious to learn just as much of them as about koji. Let’s…

• Test Kitchen – veg’fudge?

  

  Recently i enjoyed some mind-blowing koji parsnip for dinner. It was the ‘celebration’ dinner actually after the successful dry January and elimination diet… i cooked some very simple risotto and served it with koji inoculated parsnips. I am not going to lie at this point – after a dry month i got quite drunk with…

• Test Kitchen – LUCHEESE’ TROUBLESHOOTING.

  

  FAILED. I announced my latest attempt to make kojeese a failure. But I still believe it’s important to share my thoughts so we all can learn and be more clever next time. Or just luckier. :) I did my fresh cheese as usual. Nothing new – i have the method written down in some of…

• TEST KITCHEN – Kojiriac’

  

  Hello THere! I’m back with another interesting bit. You all remember I grew koji on beetroot not long time ago. I did it again – just using one of my big love as a vegetable – Mr Celeriac. I wanted to try this anyway – but also as a part of my koji-cooking-off menu for…

• TEST KITCHEN – 3rd nd 4th generations of kojeese

  

  So after another failure with the 3rd generation, I might find the right one with the 4th try. Quickly what happened with the 3rd round. I f*cked it up by placing the rounds into a sushi mat (like I did before with my almond Roquefort) and being so amazed by its growing fluffy coat that…

• TEST KITCHEN – cashew kojeese 2nd round

  

  Apologies for the wait. My fluffy tablet crashed and i ‘kindof’ lost all my data (including my almost ready book) so i was struggling with the online part of my life recently. Anyways. So i did a second round of my cashew cheese project inoculated with koji spores. This time i was trying out some…
