Here are two different recipes that are healthy and super easy to make. I used shio-koji instead of salt as well. Shio-koji is very easy to make and a lot healthier than regular salt.

    • Thanks for the comment! I am not sure exactly how much sodium is in 1 tbsp of shio-koji but I do know that the sodium content is much lower than using regular salt. As for the many types of shio-koji, there are several already made ones that are very convenient to use. I usually buy cold mountain koji and make the shio-koji myself at home. To me it tastes even better than the already made one!
