About Miso

Miso is a traditional Japanese seasoning made by fermenting soybeans with grains like rice or barley, salt, and a specific mold called Aspergillus oryzae. The result is a paste with a rich, umami flavor commonly used in soups, marinades, and dressings. Miso is packed with nutrients, including proteins, vitamins like B12 and K, and essential minerals such as zinc and phosphorus. Its fermentation process supports gut health by introducing probiotics, which are beneficial for digestion and immune function. However, miso is high in sodium, so moderation is advised, particularly for those monitoring their salt intake. With its roots in Japanese cuisine, this versatile ingredient has been celebrated not only for its taste but also for its potential health benefits.
