Clearspring Organic Sweet White Miso is a traditional fermented Japanese seasoning, prized for its rich taste and concentrated goodness. Made from whole soya beans and a unique koji fermentation culture, this miso is naturally aged in cedarwood kegs over several months, developing complex, umami-rich flavours. Umami, the fifth taste after sweet, sour, bitter, and salty, is the star of this miso. This Kyoto-style miso is short-aged to create a creamy richness with a slightly salty sweetness, traditionally crafted in small batches to preserve its special quality. While its light colour may darken over time due to natural ageing, the flavour remains unchanged. Historically reserved for royalty, due to its high rice koji content, Sweet White Miso is now more accessible for everyone to enjoy. Perfect in mashed potatoes instead of milk, creamy soups instead of cream, or as a base for dips and salad dressings, it’s a versatile and delicious addition to your kitchen.
