Collection: Miso

Miso is one of the most important and essential ingredients in Japanese cuisine. Miso is a fermented cereal paste (usually rice, soybean, or barley). Miso can be distinguished by its fermentation time. The darker the color, the more fermented the paste is and the more pronounced the flavor. Traditionally used to prepare the very famous miso soup when added to a dashi broth, the miso paste is a tasty and nutrient-rich base that can be used to make many other dishes, soups but also marinades and can even be incorporated into certain sweet preparations.
