Is miso good for you?

Miso is packed with essential nutrients like vitamins B, E, K, and folic acid. It’s also a great source of protein and fiber while being fairly low in carbohydrates. Since it’s fermented, it also contains probiotics that are good for your gut health.

Does miso paste go bad?

Since miso paste is fermented, it can last more than a year when stored properly in the refrigerator. However, it's best to check for changes in color, smell, or taste before you eat it.

What flavors pair well with miso?

Miso complements sweet, sour, and spicy flavors, making it a perfect addition to dishes with honey, citrus, chili, and ginger. It's also great with earthy flavors like mushrooms, root vegetables, and grains.
