Urban Platter Shiro Miso Paste, 300g (Light Miso | Fermented Soybean Paste | Preservative-Free | Umami Rich)

Great taste and flavour. Makes perfect miso soup in no minutes. Balanced taste. Value for money.

I don't know how to describe the taste of it. I can't think of anything to compare it with. For Indians, our pallette is quite different so it can taste weird but not unpleasant. I make seaweed soup with miso. Its a very simple recipe. Cook diced vegetables (whatever is available depending on the season, I add potatoes, carrots and cabbage) and at last, add a tbsp of miso paste, rehydrated seaweed, salt, and a bit of soy sauce. Also, I can't comment whether this is authentic or not because I never had authentic miso. But this looks good quality.

Because I do not eat onion or garlic I find the miso a quick and tasty alternative to other seasonings in products such as Atta Maggi. I have bought the miso several times and enjoy it regularly. Would definitely recommend.

This doesn't taste anything like Shiro. It leans to a more Aka flavour. It can upset the flavour if the dish planned needs a mild sweet taste. Pick something more proven as source.

Very good miso paste compared to others that I had tried earlier. One needs to add right amount of the paste and allow it to boil. Adding few veggies like stir fried zucchini, or bok choy every time adds to the taste.

Best miso, no unnecessary ingredients just the right amount of salt and makes me crave it everyday

This is my second time buying miso and for the taste I think it's the same even when the brand was different. But I don't understand why the colour is dark when it's supposed to be pale gold. In any case, Urban platter is a brand I would always choose, because of their values. I hope to be able to get correct shiro miso next time.

Love it! My first shiro miso though, so I don't have a lot to compare. But I have had shiro miso soups in restaurants and I find this tasting just as good if not better. It is also fantastic for glucose spike control, especially if you're going to have some carb or sweets, a bowl of miso soup and kimchi goes a long way to relatively flatten the spike curve.
