Koji is a fermented product made by propagating koji mold on steamed rice, wheat, soybeans, or other grains. It is essential in Japanese fermentation culture and is used for making sake, miso, amazake, shio koji, soy sauce, vinegar, mirin, pickles, preserved foods, and other fermented products. In other words, without koji, Japanese fermented foods cannot be made. In this workshop, we will make rice koji, the most common and widely used type. ■ Purpose of this workshop The aim is to help participants make koji easily at home using common kitchen tools—just like everyday cooking. ■ What you will learn • How to make koji at home • Beginners can make koji easily • Basic knowledge related to koji-making ________________________________________ ② “Miso” Making Workshop Let’s make your own miso! In this workshop, you will learn how to make 味噌 “miso.” ■ Do you know miso? Miso is one of the most important traditional Japanese seasonings, cherished for centuries. Miso soup has become popular among people around the world—but do you know how miso is actually made? This workshop is designed for those who want to craft their own miso. By participating, you will learn how to make miso easily at home and enjoy it at your daily meals. Koji is essential for making miso. Without koji—made by inoculating steamed rice with koji mold—miso cannot be produced. While we sell koji at our shop, you also have the option to make it yourself. If you are interested, you may join the separate koji-making workshop held on the same day from 10:00–12:00. ■ Purpose of this workshop You will learn how to make your own original miso at home. We will use a standard miso recipe during the workshop, and we will also teach you how to calculate salt percentage and koji ratio. This will allow you to adjust saltiness or increase the koji content to create your own unique miso. ■ What you will learn • How to prepare miso at home • Simple methods for beginners • Basic knowledge related to miso-making ________________________________________ ■ Date of Workshop ・KOJI MAKING WORKSHOP 21 Dec (Sun) 2025 10:00–12:00 (2 hrs) ・MISO MAKING WORKSHOP 21 Dec (Sun) 2025 13:00–15:00 (2 hrs) ■ Place AREKASHI / café ango Saylom Rd, Chanthabouly District, Vientiane, Laos Google Map https://maps.app.goo.gl/FnFv4ynKZFbszm1R6 ■ Contact Details Whatsapp: +856 20 5859 7081 (EN/LAO/JP) Email: continuum0024@gmail.com ■ Workshop Fee ・Koji Making Workshop (2 hrs): 50USD per person ・Miso Making Workshop (2 hrs): 50USD per person ■ Cancellation Policy • 5 days before: 100% refund • 3 days before: 50% refund • Same-day cancellation: no refund ■ How to Apply https://forms.gle/z5a3gFFwzDjoS39W6 - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/vientiane/koji-and-miso-making-workshop-in-vientiane-laos/200029359702541 - **Event Categories**: workshops - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 27 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: http://facebook.com/200029359702541?utm_source=AllEvents.in&utm_medium=event-discovery-platform&utm_campaign=vientiane-events ## Event venue details - **city**: Vientiane - **state**: VI - **country**: Laos - **location**: Arekashi - **lat**: 17.968571225859 - **long**: 102.61491516389 - **full address**: Arekashi, Vongsam-Ang Guesthouse, Vientiane, Laos ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 2 - **organizer**: アジアの発酵食品・ワークショップ (https://allevents.in/org/アジアの発酵食品・ワークショップ/23529303) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/af5f6ac726222308190febe74056b962240d8a422ba3d24d62ba05a5d8661aaf-rimg-w1200-h628-dc987550-gmir?v=1765817500 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/0d72ed489879990808cf9ba5303f888916b24d23b756f9bdfb03138f566fb129-rimg-w300-h300-dc997957-gmir?v=1765817501 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Sun, 21 Dec, 2025 at 10:00 am - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** Arekashi, Vongsam-Ang Guesthouse, Vientiane, Laos - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** アジアの発酵食品・ワークショップ - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** workshops - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about Koji and Miso Making Workshop in Vientiane Laos ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Koji and Miso Making Workshop in Vientiane Laos", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/af5f6ac726222308190febe74056b962240d8a422ba3d24d62ba05a5d8661aaf-rimg-w1200-h628-dc987550-gmir?v=1765817500", "startDate": "2025-12-21", "endDate": "2025-12-21", "url": "https://allevents.in/vientiane/koji-and-miso-making-workshop-in-vientiane-laos/200029359702541", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Arekashi", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "Vongsam-Ang Guesthouse, Vientiane, Laos", "addressLocality": "Vientiane", "addressRegion": "VI", "addressCountry": "LA" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "17.968571225859", "longitude": "102.61491516389" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "We are delighted to announce the very first Koji and Miso Making Workshop in Vientiane.\nIn the morning session, participants will learn how to make rice koji, and in the afternoon, you will use the freshly made koji to craft your own miso.\nThe workshop will be led by Mr. Takanori Onishi, a Japanese", "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/アジアの発酵食品・ワークショップ/23529303" } ] } ] ```
