  1. Sorry mates: Don`t know were my additional text went. So here we go again:

    Went to japan last year and totally fell in love with it. To make its short: Bought some dark brown paste at a store near Himeji castle (Takata-no-baba) that tasted delicious on hot rice etc. Unfortunately I can`t find something similar here in germany. To try some online shops or search for recipes: Does anyone know how this paste is called? Further information ist also welcome 🙂

    Greetings and thank you in advance.

    This is a local delicacy in Kobe.
    They sell it online, but apparently only in Japan.

    But you may be able to find similar things in Europe. Just Google “Shoyu Koji”.

    Looks like “garden variety” chili paste to me.
