Miso
Miso is a soya bean paste made by fermenting cooked soya beans with salt, water and Koji, a cultured grain used as a starter in most Japanese fermented foods. The cultured grain may be barley, rice or soya. This is then left to mature. Varying the proportions of the ingredients creates a wide range of misos, for example, darker or lighter, with each region of Japan having its own favourite. Miso is a good source of essential amino acids and certain vitamins and minerals.
