Koji— Dry-Age a Steak in 48 Hours
« on: July 11, 2018, 04:20:17 PM »
Has anyone tried this?

I'm wondering what this could do if I put it on ribs, brisket, Boston butt, etc.

The reviews sound pretty good to.

I recommend watching the Sous Vide Everything video on Koji Rice on youtube.  They do a three way comparison with Koji Rice, Koji Rice + Fish Sauce, and a control steak.

Hmm... now I have to see if you can get the Koji rice locally at a asian market... I'm really intrigued after watching that video.

I've never been one to tenderize meat with an enzyme. I've tried it a couple times and the outside turned to mush, while the inside was unaffected.

Call me skeptical at this time...

Next time I am at Costco I will get a Rib Roast and cut in half.  Will start Dry Aging it and when it gets to 35 Days will do a little more research on when this stuff should be applied to the unaged steak and see if there is any difference.  I can see this being a family night to get 7 peoples input!

It seems you really dig testing/evaluating things, Bent.
And doing the final results for a group.

So this latest has to be right up your alley.
