Aka Miso (Red Miso) has a richer, bold flavor with deep umami and a stronger, saltier edge. A longer fermentation gives it a complex, savory taste that's perfect for hearty soups, marinades, braises, and dishes that need depth and intensity.
INGREDIENTS: White Miso Paste (water, soybeans, rice, salt)
How to useUse as you would any miso: the base for soup, dressings, marinades. Shiro leans mild and creamy; Aka brings depth and intensity. Both belong in the larder of anyone who cooks with intention.
