For those of you with soy allergies, never fear, our local favorites, Jorinji's got you! 100% soy-free miso made with their traditional recipe, substituting organic chickpeas for soybeans. Its a little earthier, greener, and sweeter than traditional miso and I love using it in sauces and dressings.

Miso paste shows up in so many Japanese recipes. Most everyone now knows about miso soup, which starts with miso paste with dashi broth. Miso can also be used in sauces, marinades, and dressings to bring nutty, savory umami into your cooking. Typically you'd utilize the light and simple flavor of white miso in the hot days of summer. Then, when the weather cools and calls for heartier cooking, red miso typically gets used. 

These are now packed in glass jars! We are still offering 2 sizes (tho the sizes are slightly larger than before):

8 oz
16oz - a large jar!

Jorinji Chickpea Miso is fermented in Portland using only organic chickpeas, sea salt, and hand-made raw Koji. They use the same methodology they use to make their red and white miso. Their recipe dates back over 1300 years. Soy Beam, makers of Jorinji Miso, know that Portland is an ideal climate for miso fermentation. The average moisture and temperature here contribute wonderfully to the miso that they produce.
