| Solid-state fermentation (SSF) has special benefits in compare to submerged fermentation including being cost effective, uses small amounts of water, use low volume equipment (lower cost), and more productivity or yield in unit volume, easier the aeration process, increased diffusion rate of oxygen into moistened solid substrate, supporting the growth of aerial mycelium. SSF can be effectively used at smaller volumes, which makes it suitable for rural areas. From the beginning of human civilization, SSF has been applied in production of food ingredients. Several types of fermented food e.g. single cell protein, probiotics, flavor enhancing, drinks, pigments, peptide sweetners have been broadly produced in SSF. Authors purpose in writing this paper reviews the in food applications of solid-state fermentation process, it has been used particularly for the production of enzymes, organic acids, pigments, SCP, exopolysaccharides, and aroma compounds.
