I started a new nukadoko (fermented rice-bran bed) for nukazuke.
Some people keep the same nukadoko for decades, but I'm not very good at maintaining it, so I start a fresh one every year.
I add rice koji to help kick-start the fermentation.
After adding cooled boiled water and kneading it well, I buried the outer leaves of Chinese cabbage in the bed.
I hope it ferments well and turns into delicious nukazuke.
