Introduction
How can miso add authentic Asian flavor to your everyday recipes?
Are you interested in adding a unique taste to otherwise bland dishes?
Are the ingredients found in your local area, or can you order them online?
You can enjoy miso, either raw or cooked, in many dishes. Add it just before you finish cooking your favorite recipes. Dont boil miso soup or other dishes, or the heat can kill off its beneficial active bacteria.
When you buy pre-made miso, its ready to be used from the container. It will add the saltiness of umami to all kinds of dishes. Its found in Asian groceries & health food stores.
Miso can range from dark brown to pale tan or reddish-brown. Its flavor varies with the colors. As a rule, miso tends to be savory, salty, and tangy. The lighter types are usually a bit sweeter. It isnt meant to be consumed alone but rather used to enhance the flavor of dishes youre preparing. Miso is excellent in soups based around it, but it also adds savory, rich flavor to many dishes without overpowering them. Read on and learn more about miso
