A fungus that can cook: Koji, the mold from Japan, has been cultivated for over 2000 years, preserves vegetables and refines food into true delicacies. Schmidt Max attended a Koji course and created his own provisions. A Bavarian version - with the ancient grain emmer instead of rice as the basis for the koji, with walnut flour instead of soy as the basis for the shoyu seasoning sauce. Schmidt Max learns what to look out for with koji and co from fermentista Sibylle Hunger - and of course lots of recipes, what emmer is all about and why three siblings in the Inn Valley want to save the native walnut.
