About SOYBEAN PASTE
Hikari Miso Soybean Paste is a classic Japanese miso made from just four ingredients: water, soybeans, rice, and salt -- representing the core rice miso (kome miso) tradition. Per 100 g it provides 208 calories, 8.3 g protein, 25.0 g carbohydrates, and 8.3 g fat. The fermentation process develops deep umami, savory complexity typical of Japanese cooking. Hikari Miso is a well-established Japanese brand known for consistently produced, broadly accessible miso products. This paste is used to prepare miso soup, marinades, glazes, and dressings. The sodium content is significant due to the salt-heavy fermentation base. Suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets, and a natural source of fermented probiotic cultures.
Ingredients
