[SEASONAL] Probiotic Raw Miso

***If brews are ordered, they will be fulfilled in one sitting together when the miso is ready***

Miso is fermented by a mould called Aspergillus oryzae, which breaks down the proteins in soy into flavourful amino acids. 

Miso is ubiquitous in Japanese cooking, and presents most frequently in a nourishing soup, laced with scallions and delicate squares of silken tofu. It's also super healthy, hearty and comforting too!

Besides soup, it is also an umami powerhouse and can be used as a marinade, sauce, fermentation medium (in pickles)

Famed chef David Chang of Momofuku describes it best: 
"Microbes produce enzymes, enzymes develop amino acids, glutamic acid + aspartic acid = umami, umami = delicious."

How is Craft & Culture's miso different?

Our miso is made in very small batches by hand, by the same folks who brew your favorite Kombuchas and Kefirs! 

It will be slightly runny and have a distinct sweet scent due to the koji used in it's fermentation. The texture is velvety and mousse-like as it’s raw and alive.
