The worst tasting miso paste ever!

I bought Miso Master because it is a company that seems to be doing all the right things (well, except for the crappy plastic container). I never tasted it before and when I handed it over to my boyfriend to use when he was cooking Japanese homestyle dinner one night - he nearly barfed. "I don't care if it is organic, it doesn't taste good."

He was right. It doesn't take living in Japan for 7 years to know that miso should taste good right out of the package -- it should be tasty enough to want to spread on toast or a cracker. This stuff tastes terrible. So - I opened the container of white miso - same problem. Yuck.

Miso Master has mastered miso

Miso Master is one of those brands it's difficult to say enough good about. They do everything right and their products speak of it, too. How could I list everything great about this paste? It's unpasteurized, aged 2 years, organic, non-GMO. It's got rice koji, steamed rice that's been inoculated with special spores to produce fermented rice. It's also got organic soy beans and sea salt. And there's the fact that when miso is done right, it retains all its great health benefits, like supporting the immune system. These guys even use Blue Ridge Mountain well water!
