Hikari Miso Makanai Instant Miso Soup
Shinshu miso is a traditional dry miso that combines a refreshing flavor and rich aroma thanks to the action of yeast and lactic acid bacteria. However, since sweeter miso is preferred in modern times, each manufacturer is gradually evolving its flavor and taste to meet the needs of the times, such as using lactic acid bacteria. It is very healthy and often eaten together with a variety of vegetables. It goes well with chicken, pork, beef, and seafood broths. It also goes well with other fermented foods such as cheese and butter.
