Light Miso, 500g · Taste Of Asia

Shiro miso is one of the smartest ingredients you can have in your kitchen if you like to cook Asian food at home. It's a light miso, meaning a milder and more accessible style than dark miso, with a softer saltiness and a deep but balanced flavor. It's great in classic miso soup, but that's certainly not where it ends – you can mix it into sauces, marinades, glazes, noodle bowls, vegetables, tofu, and even vinaigrettes that you want to give more body and umami.

A fermented product made from soybeans and rice, rich in plant-based protein. Because it's relatively concentrated, one tablespoon can completely change the character of a soup or sauce, making it one of those small products that do a lot of work in the kitchen. The 500-gram package also makes it very practical for those who cook with it regularly and not just for a one-time trial.

Tips
For miso soup, mix it into warm but not boiling liquid to better preserve its delicate flavor.
Also excellent for marinades, salad dressings, noodles, roasted vegetables, and tofu.
It's best to start with a small amount and taste – it's concentrated and quickly adds depth.
