In which historical period of China, Chinese herbal medicines were added to distiller's yeast?
In the Jin Dynasty, a new method of making koji appeared, that is, adding herbs to koji. In "Southern Vegetation" written by people in Jin Dynasty, the method of adding plant branches and leaves and juice during koji-making was recorded, which made the microorganisms grow better in the koji, and the wine brewed with this koji also had a special flavor. Later, there were many ditties for brewing famous wines in China, including Chinese herbal medicines, such as Baidong wine, Guilin Sanhua wine, Shaoxing wine and so on. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Daughter Red in Shaoxing yellow rice wine was famous far and wide, and many works in this period laid the foundation for Shaoxing yellow rice wine to spread to future generations. Han Ji's "Southern Vegetation" not only records the production method of yellow rice wine koji, but also records the custom of Shaoxing to brew carved wine for her newborn daughter and then take it out to drink when her daughter gets married.
