Cooking Basics | Cooking with Broth
A good broth serves as the basis for many soups and sauces. Foods cooked in broth are more aromatic because the broth already contains flavors and minerals—some of which are absorbed into the food. SPICY MISO (soy miso paste) is therefore an excellent modern flavor base for meat, fish, vegetables, and vegetarian dishes.
Information from Japan | the hacho miso
Hacho miso was long considered a status symbol of the Japanese emperor, as soy cultivation used to be very difficult and expensive. It was called a gift from the gods and praised at court for its health-promoting effects. Containing more than 20 amino acids, it is now also considered a source of protein and high in fiber in Europe.
