11 oz. Pouch - Japan Deep, Savory Miso Flavor Without Building the Marinade From Scratch A good miso marinade does a lot at once: it seasons, deepens, clings, and caramelizes. Umami Insider Miso Marinade gives you that savory-sweet miso character without pulling miso, mirin, aromatics, and patience from every corner of the pantry. We love this because it is not just thin miso sauce. It is made with bold red miso paste and Kinzanji moromi, a seasoned, chunky fermented miso mash that gives the marinade body, texture, fragrance, and real umami depth. All About Umami Insider Miso Marinade Miso is one of Japan’s great marinade ingredients because it brings salt, sweetness, fermentation, and savory depth in one ingredient. This marinade builds on that tradition with red miso and Kinzanji moromi, creating a full-bodied, fragrant, salty-sweet flavor that works especially well with fish, meat, tofu, and vegetables. Why It Works Red miso brings bold, savory depth Kinzanji moromi adds texture and fermented complexity Salty-sweet balance works well with grilling and broiling Thicker texture helps the marinade cling to ingredients Designed specifically as a marinade, though it can also be used in stir-fries or as a dip How to Use It Cut meat, seafood, tofu, or vegetables into the size you want to cook. Add the marinade to a zip-top bag or container with the food, using about one part marinade to three parts ingredients. Marinate for about 3 hours for lighter flavor, or overnight in the refrigerator for a bolder result. Use with salmon, black cod, halibut, shrimp, or scallops Try with chicken thighs, pork chops, steak, skewers, or tofu Brush onto eggplant, mushrooms, squash, onions, or zucchini Use in stir-fries or as a savory dipping sauce when you want extra miso depth A Note for Cooks Before grilling or broiling, lightly wipe or rinse away excess miso so it does not scorch before the food cooks through. This marinade contains soy, wheat, and sesame.
