Umami Paste with Ginger (150 g) is a traditional Japanese condiment that deepens savory depth in everyday cooking. Ground from koji-fermented rice and blended with soy sauce and fresh ginger, it creates a concentrated paste that enhances flavor without dominating it. Fermentation with koji develops natural sweetness and a pronounced umami, while the ginger note adds brightness. This versatile paste pairs with vegetables and proteins alike, and its compact jar makes it ideal for quick weeknight meals, batch sauces, soups, and dressings. Use as a marinade or glaze, stir into broths, or fold into stir-fries for depth without adding extra ingredients. Size and ingredients: 150 g jar; koji-fermented rice, soy sauce, fresh ginger. Versatile uses: marinades for meat, poultry, tofu, or seafood; soups, stir-fries, and finishing glazes. Flavor profile: concentrated umami with natural sweetness and a bright ginger finish.
