as fruits, vegetables and nuts. The presented research describes how Rhyzopus oryzae, a fungi used in Asian culture to produce traditional recipes,
results in fruits, vegetables and grains with unique sensorial properties. Throughout the paper, different examples of these novelty uses are
presented showing different examples of prototypes those have been successfully incorporated into our menus, their production procedures and
their sensorial evaluations.
