Hikari Organic Miso Paste, Saikyo Sweet, 14.1 oz

Different taste from traditional miso sweet. Little bit sweeter. It was very good tasting.

Very nice flavor. Smooth and creamy with a little sweetness. Great buy!

Tastes good. Package arrived damaged and leaking. Just flopping around in the outer carton.

Used this paste to make miso fish. Cooked both salmon and mackerel and let me tell you, it was amazing. Made the marinade with some soy sauce, rice wine, sake. Then let the fish marinade for 4 hours or so. Baked in the oven and it was fantastic.

Many brands of shiro miso are extremely salty making some recipes quite unpleasanty salty to eat. This one is mild and less salty, making most recipes really good and there's no guessing if you've used too much.

I ordered 2 of these for my god mom who had tried ordering them a year prior. Was hoping we were just a bad statistic then. Nope: Both that time AND this time the products came discolored, tasted very anbnormal and approaching expiration within the month . For miso that’s not good.. and I can’t even return it? Your joking. Amazon you need to remove this product

After many trials and tribulations of dealing with the stupidity of the local post-office, my miso paste finally showed up! If you're used to shiro (white) miso, this is a little different as it's not quite as salty and has a sweeter flavor. Hikari is a solid brand—I've used their miso pastes in just about any dish that needs a umami boost. Since I'm at work right now, I'm really looking forward to trying this out and see how it differs from the normal white variety.

Container was broken when it arrived but I was able to salvage the miso into another jar
