Organic Red Miso Paste has a rich flavour and taste. It is made by traditional and natural fermentation methods that produce unpasteurised, fresh live miso. Live miso contains active enzymes that aid digestion, as well as helping to tenderise meat or fish. It also brings out nice Umami flavour, often being used to make soup, dressings, dipping sauces or added to a hot pot. Red miso paste has a longer fermentation process than white miso paste. No GMO. Suitable for vegetarians and vegans. No artifical preservatives, colours or flavours. The colour of the miso may darken however this does not affect the quality of the product. White spots may appear on the surface which is normal in healthy authentic miso. The package may also expand due to the activity of live miso. Ingredients: Organic Soy Beans, Organic Rice, Salt
