About "Edo Miso

Edo miso is a historic miso that was considered a luxury item during the war and its production was banned, but has been restored after a 70-year absence. Edo miso was born in the Edo period (1603-1867) and made in the city. Before the war, it was known as one of the "five major miso" along with shiro-miso (white miso), Sendai miso, inka miso (barley miso), and hatcho miso (soybean miso), and is the root of the modern Edo taste (amakara miso).

Edo miso is made in a short period of time by adding a large amount of rice koji to steamed soybeans while the soybeans are still hot and free of salt to promote fermentation. This process is unique to Edo miso, and is characterized by a freshness that is rare in miso. The balance of sweetness, saltiness, and umami, and the crisp, unctuous flavor that enhances the taste of the ingredients, unlike long-aged miso, are some of the charms of Edo miso.


Please visit the official website of "Tokyo Edo Miso" ( https://www.edomiso.jp/ ) for more details about the campaign ( https://www.edomiso.jp/topics/news/#rd132 ) and information about the products. Please take this opportunity to enjoy the unique flavor of Edo's traditional "Edo Miso"!
