Best Organic Koji Miso Paste - Low Salt, 10.58 oz

This organic miso paste is fermented in a perfectly calculated balance of rice koji and soybean, containing 25% less salt than what is normally found in similar types of miso paste. Made with organic rice and soybeans, the miso paste has a lighter color than other miso pastes, but still retains the bold, rich, distinctive flavor of miso that you know and love. The slight sweetness and milder salt taste are intriguing, making this miso the perfect paste for those who prefer to eat organic and also wish to reduce the amount of salt in their diet.

Miso paste is a highly versatile ingredient that can be used in a number of creative ways. Of course, it can easily be used to make miso soup, although the soup will have a milder and somewhat sweeter flavor with this koji miso paste. Alternatively, try using it to make tonjiru (Japanese pork soup) - it perfectly complements the other flavors, resulting in rich umami. This miso also mixes well with mayonnaise to create a savory dip for vegetables, known as misomayo (Miso 1: Mayonnaise 1-2).

For a unique and flavorful dish, try marinating camembert cheese with this miso in a Ziplock bag and leaving it in the fridge for 3 to 5 days. Then, enjoy the cheese with wine or sake. This miso paste can also be used to make a savory miso-glazed salmon or eggplant.

Made in Japan, this organic miso paste is a versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of creative ways. Whether you're making miso soup, tonjiru, or looking for a unique way to enjoy cheese, this miso paste is the perfect choice for those seeking an organic, lower-salt option with a delightful balance of flavors.
