respectfully, the sparkling wine comparison is not the best! i would say it's like making your own vegetable oil from scratch - something so commonplace and cheap not many would do it themselves

I love the combo of commercial processing, anecdotal home recipes, and scientific papers. It’s such a cool way to combine sources into your totally unique way of making it!

Is this a similar process to making rice koji? I’ve wanted to try this but I’m nervous about messing it up

I had such a difficult time finding gluten free doubanjiang. I finally found only one GF doenjang on Amazon, but the flavor just isn'tthe same. I love your video and I'm absolutely thinking about making my own and trying to sub rice flour for the wheat.

I think this is what we call “tremoço” in Brazil, a savory pickled snack we buy to eat while drinking beer
