Clearspring Organic White Miso Jar 270g

This unpasteurized white miso paste offers a delicious balance of savoury and sweetness whilst still packing an umami punch. Use to make an authentic Japanese miso soup and to enrich the flavour of stews and sauces, or in dressings and even as a glaze.

Miso will naturally darken with time; this will not affect quality. Miso is a live product and ongoing fermentation may cause the lid to bulge. It will still be safe to consume. Harmless white yeasts may develop from exposure to air. Simply skim off.

Unpasteurised miso contains an abundance of live enzymes that can be destroyed through prolonged cooking. However the nutritional properties, as well as the flavour of miso, are left unaltered by cooking, and some recipes suggest cooking miso to develop the flavour of other ingredients in the dish.

To maximise the enzymatic benefits of miso select recipes where miso is added towards the end of cooking.
