Brown Rice Amazake from Germinated Brown Rice (with Miyako-Koji)
- 180 ml Brown rice
- 540 ml Water
- 1 bag Miyako-koji (or rice malt)
- 1 machine A rice cooker that can make porridge and regular rice
- 1 set Disposable chopsticks
- Soak the brown rice in water for 24 hours changing the water in between to germinate it.
- When it's done soaking, pour out the leftover water.
- Pour the rice into the rice container up to the third cup line or as much as you'd like, and then pour in a large amount of water and set it to make the porridge.
- Cool the porridge to 60C degrees and mix in the scrunched up bag of koji.
- (Cool to the degree that you can stick your pinky finger in for about 5 seconds.)
- Use the disposable chopsticks and create a gap that is about as thick as a pair of scissors between the lid and the machine.
- Let it sit for 10 hours and let the porridge return to room temperature.
- (Mix 1-2 times during this time.)
- After 10 hours it's done!
- How to drink it: Mix a small amount with water and add in a little bit of salt.
- Boil once and drink.
- How to store it: You can store it in the fridge or the freezer.
- 1 cup is about 200 grams.
- I froze it in 200 gram portions.
- I made this porridge with germinated brown rice but of course you can make porridge with regular rice and rice malt.
- You can even make it with regular rice porridge.
- Enjoy making it in many different ways.
