Ichinen (about 1 year aged), is a red miso paste that offers layers of rich Umami flavors. It has a stronger taste compared to our younger, milder yellow miso. This miso is naturally fermented, with no temperature control used to expedite the fermentation process. The fermentation period ranges from approximately 9 to 18 months.
*Color may vary depending on the bacth.

We "shikomi” prepare our artisanal miso by hand in our commercial kitchen in Downtown Los Angeles, just like how each household in Japan traditionally made their miso batches at home. Our miso has a very high Koji ratio, setting it apart from the mass-produced miso by large manufacturers.

Pairs with: Vegetables, meat, tofu, and more…
