YAMASAN Kyoto Uji White Miso Paste, Traditional Fermented Condiment (350g)

【About the White Miso】

Shiro-Miso (White Miso) is a sweet rice miso made using rice koji. Unlike other misos, it has a high ratio of rice koji to soybeans, resulting in a shorter maturation period and a lower salt content. Its unique aroma and sweetness enhance the flavor of the ingredients.

【What Sets Shiro-Miso Apart】

Unlike common red miso, Shiro-Miso has a light, white color and a shorter aging period. The difference is further emphasized by its use of rice malt, which gives it its distinctive appearance.

【Rice Koji Intensity】

Shiro-Miso typically features a high percentage of rice koji, but our variant uses twice as much rice koji as soybeans. This ensures a natural and mild sweetness that truly stands out.

【Versatile Usage】

In Japan, Shiro-Miso is commonly used in miso soups and ozoni (a traditional New Year’s dish). It also pairs excellently with soy milk, stews, and pasta cream sauces, adding depth and a sweet note to your dishes.

【Convenient Packaging】

We have chosen a tube-type package to ensure easy and convenient use while cooking. This packaging is perfect for outdoor cooking, allowing you to bring it anywhere without hassle. It is also easy to store in a small refrigerator and use with one hand.
