Café&Meal MUJI Miso Delis
Enjoy the natural and healthy flavour

Miso is a traditional Japanese seasoning made from ingredients like soybeans, rice, barley, salt and koji through the fermentation process. Miso is classified into soybean miso, rice miso or barley miso based on ingredient type, or white or red miso based on its colour. Rich in proteins, a variety of amino acids, vitamin B complex and E, minerals such as iron, phosphorus, and calcium, Miso has been regarded as a nutritional food since the Edo period. During the fermentation process, Miso provides the gut with beneficial bacteria for improving intestinal health and enhancing immunity.

Kinzanji Miso

Originated in the Kamakura period, Kinzanji Miso has a long history. Made from eggplant, ginger, cucurbit, rice, and barley through the fermentation process, it is a type of barley miso with rich mouthfeel and sweet taste. You can enjoy it directly as a snack, or serve it with salad.

Red Miso

It is a type of soybean miso with soybeans and soybean koji as main ingredients. Hatcho miso is variety of red miso originated in the Edo period, and its manufacturing method remains almost unchanged today. Traditional large wooden barrels are used to prepare the miso. Skilled workers place large quantities of stone on top of the wooden barrels so they act as weight and pressure to keep the lids firmly closed. The miso is then left to slowly mature over 2 years. The long fermentation period gives the miso an intense, bold flavour, making it especially ideal for meat dishes.

White Miso

It is a type of rice miso mainly made from soybeans and rice, and has a relatively short fermentation time. With a mildly sweet and less salty taste, you can add it into Japanese-style bonito broth to bring flavour and richness to the broth, or use as seasoning for seafood dishes to bring out the fresh flavour of ingredients.

Additive Free Miso

Made from natural ingredients such as soybeans, rice, and salt, it is a type of rice miso. Free of additives, the original flavour of koji is retained, giving the miso a mild sweetness that goes well with both vegetable and meat dishes.
