About SOYBEAN PASTE
Hikari Miso Soybean Paste is a traditional Japanese miso from Hikari Miso, made from water, soybeans, rice, and salt -- the classic four-ingredient shiro (white) or kome (rice) miso formulation. Per 100 g it delivers 208 calories, 25 g carbohydrates, 8.3 g protein, 8.3 g fat, and no fiber. Miso is produced through fermentation of soybeans with koji (a rice mold), creating a umami-rich paste with complex flavor including sweet, salty, and savory notes. It is a foundational ingredient in Japanese cuisine used in soups, marinades, glazes, salad dressings, and braises. Contains soy. Naturally gluten-free in this rice-based version (some miso styles use barley). The fermentation process produces beneficial bacteria, though heat destroys live cultures if boiled.
Ingredients
