Hmm... I don't think I've ever even had real dry aged beef to compare. Cool idea though.

It's about $9 for a bag of the rice on Amazon.
I've never had a dry aged steak either. I'm with Dan, a NY strip should be a great test.
Another article about the process:

"The meat has a very distinct flavor and picks up a slight miso sweetness. That sweetness is the biggest difference between the real dry-aged meat versus the koji hack, and that’s likely what causes the meat to brown or caramelize faster. The koji steak is also a little less tender than the 45-day one, but I’m not complaining."

Hope all is well with Bill, no posts in a year.
I don't know Clint, 48 hrs taking up space in the fridge sounds better than 7 or 8 days.
Dry Aged Steak
I can now get prime beef easier than dry aged ... Whole Foods has dry aged from time to time. Prime is much more important to me than dry aged. Serious Eats has many entries on dry aging at home. Try them first.

Here is something else to watch while you are waiting for the rice to arrive.

No refrigeration while aging? No worry about flies?

It "ages" in the fridge.
Pan seared? Cooked in an oven? Where's the barbecue content in this post!!!???

So, you will do a big “ Reveal” tomorrow?
Oops, forgot, waiting on treated rice delivery.
I mist remember...
“Patience grasshopper, all will be revealed in its own time.”

I was so tired last night, I missed the fridge part in the article.
Looking forward to the finished product.

Gonna check my Asian grocer for the moldy rice to try this. Amazon seemed a bit expensive.

Bob, did you ever do this? I searched for "koji" but didn't see anything.
A friend of mine directed me to the following link, so naturally I checked TVWBB.
