Miso Workshop (English) 26.11.2023

In this fermentation workshop, we will make traditional Japanese miso paste using organic ingredients and artisanal koji. You will learn about the fermentation processes of classic soybean paste and koji, their specific flavors, as well as their health benefits. Everyone will receive a jar of self-made organic miso paste to mature at home.

Markus Shimizu, the owner of mimi ferments, will lead this course and share his many years of experience with you and give you tips and tricks for the production on the way. In addition, you will receive a handout.

We will start the workshop with an Amazake smoothie, taste different types of homemade Miso variations, and finish the workshop with a fragrant hot bowl of homemade Miso Soup and some small bites using our organic soybean pastes. Drinks are provided too!

Location: Mimi Ferments, Oudenarderstrasse 16, Haus C7, 13347 Berlin.

What is Miso?

Miso is the fermented, nutritious soybean paste that has always been important in Japanese culture and cuisine.
In Japan, the ferment of soybeans, rice, or grains has a wide variety of local variations and family recipes and special ways of using it.Thus, there are many different flavors and colors of miso pastes. What they all have in common, however, is the use of koji (starter culture) and the general method of making the ferment.
