Miso Rouge d'Orge - Marukawa Miso - 345g

This miso is brewed according to the Tenen Jôzô technique, that is to say without adding enzyme or additives for more than a year. The end result is a unique miso with a natural taste that can vary slightly from year to year. The Miso d'Hose is very popular in western Japan, especially in the regions of Shikoku and Kyûshû. Barley opens appetite and brings to Miso a taste rich in umami and slightly sweet to the good taste of cereals. It is perfect for preparing soups, sauces and marinades or to accompany vegetables, meats or fish. It is also an essential ingredient for noodle dishes. This Miso d'Hose produces handcrafted and locally under the JAS label, which guarantees the protection of the environment, climate and biodiversity. Less than 1% of Japanese barley is produced under this label because of the economic challenge that barley represents with Japanese farmers: it is half as profitable as rice. Marukawa Miso has decided to make a quality barley miso in small quantities by buying barley at the right price directly from Japanese farmers.
