Yutaka Organic Miso Paste, 300g

Yutaka’s organic miso paste gives your soups, broths and marinades a rich umami flavour. The fermented bean paste is a key ingredient in Japanese cookery, with its bold and salty flavours. Add this organic miso paste to dashi to form the base of noodle soups, or mix with soy sauce and use as a marinade for chicken, tofu and aubergine.  

Follow the below instructions for making miso broth:

1. Prepare your dashi (stock): Soak 15g of Yutaka Dashi Kombu (dried kelp) in 700ml of water for 30 minutes. Bring to the boil, simmer for 2 minutes and remove the kombu to create a great vegetarian dashi. For more umami flavour, add to this dashi 20g of Yutaka Katsuo Bushi (bonito flakes), simmer for 1 minute and turn off the heat. Wait for the flakes to settle and then drain using a sieve.
2. Dissolve 3 to 4 tbsp Yutaka Organic Miso Paste into the dashi, according to your taste.
3. Stir well and use as a base for noodles, soups or stews.
