Known to be an all-purpose seasoning, shio koji works wonders in any style of cooking. This easy-to-use aspect is another reason the traditional ingredient recaptured the spotlight in Japan.
Shio koji can be simply poured onto meat or fish as a marinade or added as a sauce or finishing touch.
It can also be used in place of salt by substituting two teaspoons of shio koji for every teaspoon of salt.
