What is miso?
What is miso?
Miso is a Japanese fermented soybean paste made with soybeans, koji, and salt, sometimes with rice or barley.
Fermentation adds probiotic-rich umami and everyday nutrition. Use in miso soup, marinades, dressings, and glazes.
Sourced from Sano Miso, established 1934
We source our miso from Sano Miso in Tokyo, founded in 1934. They are third-generation miso specialists. Sano Miso curates more than 70 Japanese miso across regions and matures them with care. We choose Sano Miso for craft, consistency, and everyday cooking.
Wide range of styles
Sano Miso offers rice miso, barley miso, and soybean miso across a true range of taste. Choose sweeter or saltier profiles, and lighter or more complex flavors. Pick short or long fermentation and standard or low-salt options. Use the profile that fits your soup, marinades, dressings, or glazes. Gentle options for kids, low-salt choices for older adults, and balanced picks for the whole family.
Living Fermentation
Our miso selection stays alive with friendly cultures from koji, yeast, and lactic acid bacteria. These cultures create natural enzymes that build umami and aroma. They may support a healthy gut and help your body use nutrients. There is a Japanese saying, “Eat miso and you won’t need a doctor.” You get deep flavor and steady nutrition without additives.
