Aged red miso 300g

Appearing in Japan in the 7th century, then reserved for the nobility and samurai, miso 味噌 (pronounced misso) is an essential condiment in the daily cooking of the Japanese.

The Miso of the producer Hikari is produced in the Shinshu region, prefecture of Nagano, renowned for its natural wealth (water, air, cool climate), exclusively from the best natural ingredients. Behind the simplicity of its ingredients (fermented soybeans, rice or wheat, sea salt and water) lies a complex art comparable to that of cheese in the West.

This aged red miso has undergone a long fermentation hence its pronounced taste stronger than white miso and rich in umami. It is rich in protein and has multiple benefits on digestion, cholesterol and blood circulation, much appreciated by macrobiotic enthusiasts.
