Miko Brand Shiro Miso Soybean Paste

Miko Brand Shiro Miso Soybean Paste is a traditional Japanese white miso (Shiro miso) that delivers light, delicate, and slightly sweet umami flavor with a creamy texture. Unlike darker miso varieties, Shiro miso is fermented for a shorter time and contains a higher proportion of rice koji, which gives it a mellow taste that’s versatile across many dishes.

Taste:

• Mild and gently savory with a subtle sweetness that’s typical of white miso.

• Less intense saltiness than red or darker miso, making it ideal for lighter broths and seasoning.

Texture:

• Smooth and paste-like, easily dissolving into liquids or blending seamlessly into sauces.

• Creamy body that enriches dishes without overpowering other flavors.

Ingredients:
Made from fermented soybeans, rice koji, and salt, creating a clean, authentic miso paste with minimal components.

Culinary Uses:

• Classic base for miso soup and light broths.

• Incorporated into dressings, marinades, and glazes for fish, tofu, and vegetables.

• Adds gentle umami to ramen, stir-fries, and sauces without overwhelming other ingredients.
