Red Yeast Rice (made with Monascus purpureus)
As far as my research went, Red Yeast Rice (RYR) is made the same way as other koji.
Whereas Koji spores like Aspergillus oryazae are easy to obtain, I found it impossible to get Monascus purpureus spores (where I live). But after 2 years I was lucky enough to purchase a few bags of RYR.
My idea was, that I could use this RYR to inoculate fresh rice. What are the chances that this works?
I read, that the growth of the fungus (Aspergillus oryazae) is stopped before it can produce spores (biter taste?).
I didn't find much about the production of RYR (mostly due to papers which weren't free) but it seems that the fermentation takes 5-7 days (plus drying) whereas the fermentation of koji (Aspergillus oryazae) takes only 2-3 days (is this right?).
So, my assumption is, that in RYR it is desired that the fungus will produce spores and therefore there might be a chance to make fresh RYR from storebought RYR and fresh rice. It also could be possible, that the Monascus purpureus just takes longer to grow. It's hard to find any information because if you search for this, you mostly get spammed with all this supplement shit or how to make Red Yeast wine from RYR.
Is there anyone who has any experience or deeper knowledge about this?

Can these be used with any starch? And can someone maybe outline how I would brew wih these?, would I need yeast?
I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Do your worst!
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
It really does, I swear!

Nothing, he was gladiator.
Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
When I got home, they were still there.

Daughter: I'm hungry
Me: nerves building, smile widening
Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.
She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.
Thank you all for listening.
