The Art of Miso | Where To Get Original Japanese Fermented Food in Berlin | Euromaxx

Markus Shimizu is a true master of Miso and other fermented food from Japan. He has specialized in traditional fermentation methods and makes his products by hand in his store in Berlin. Here, he mixes soybeans with rice and then sprinkles the mixture with koji fungus, which produces a tasty mold during storage. Many of Berlin's top chefs have heard about Markus Shimizu's products and are using them in their food creations. Like at the 2-star restaurant "Facil". Markus Shimizu says: "In Japan, life revolves around food. People like to go out to eat -- and to eat well. This mentality is still in its infancy in Germany -- if it ever fully develops at all." -------------------------------- Subscribe to DW Euromaxx:    / dweuromaxx   Would you like to find out more about Euromaxx? ▸Website: https://www.dw.com/lifestyle ▸Facebook:   / dw.euromaxx   ▸Instagram   / dw_euromaxx   dw.com/lifestyle is bringing engaging insights into European culture and lifestyles to a global audience.
