YAMASAN KYOTO UJI Japanese Dry Red Miso Seasoning, Freeze-Dried Red Miso Powder, Rich Flavor and Umami, No Additives, Vegan, Delicious Choice for Various Foods, Made in Japan 90g(3.17oz)

First time trying this product and I did enjoy it with some foods but definitely not on others. As I become familiar with its taste my experience will be better. The lack of fifth star is due to my ignorance. I was looking to add more fermented foods for health reasons. This Miso does provide that.

Initially, only 13 ratings for this miso powder raised some concerns about its quality. However, my perspective changed after delving into the history of YAMASAN KYOTO UJI, a company with over 100 years of experience making renowned miso pastes and green tea. This rich history reassured me about the quality of their products, and I decided to order the Japanese Dry Miso Seasoning, Freeze-Dried Miso Powder, despite the high price. Having grown up enjoying the umami taste of miso, I initially hesitated to purchase it online. However, the convenience of this freeze-dried miso powder, which I found superior to miso paste due to its longer shelf life and consistent freshness, put my worries at ease. My main reason for purchasing this miso powder was to marinate wild-caught salmon portions rather than make miso soups. I created a marinade by mixing the miso powder with dried minced garlic, cayenne pepper powder, and rice vinegar, and then covered the salmon portions before baking. The result? It's a dish that's not just delicious but also a testament to the quality of this miso powder! This miso powder is costly, but it contains 66 servings. I use two servings each time, which will last a few months. I highly recommend this Japanese Dry Miso Seasoning, Freeze-Dried Miso Powder!

Delish. Good quality not too salty at all . I will order again…. I added bone chicken broth , tofu, spinach and garlic . Delish, healthy and perfect for a cold winter day!

I wasn't sure whether to give this two stars or three stars because the quality is good but the taste is very very mild. I definitely won't order it again

I prefer this dry to the paste (which is also delicious); it’s a personal preference. It’s tasty, simple to make, just add chopped green onions and tofu squares, or thinly sliced bok choy, mushrooms and glass noodles. Filling and healthy!
