MISO "RED KOJI" - 赤糀みそ 1kg

This red koji miso is a rice miso fermented with a higher proportion of soybeans to koji and a longer ageing period, giving it a deep colour and a bold, savoury character.

Miso is made by fermenting soybeans with rice koji and salt; in red ("aka") miso styles, the longer fermentation and higher soybean content develop richer umami, more pronounced saltiness, and a darker reddish-brown colour through extended amino acid and Maillard development. It suits heartier miso soups, glazes, and simmered dishes where a robust miso flavour is wanted.
