It is mild and sweet, with less sodium than typical miso. Saikyo Miso can be used across a variety of dishes: on its own as a dip for vegetable crudités, in miso soup, or as a fish or meat marinade (commonly known as \u003cem\u003eSaikyo-yaki\u003c\/em\u003e). It's also one of the ingredients Naoko (a.k.a. Mrs. Donabe) uses frequently in her cooking. One of her favorite dishes, Kyoto-Style Saikyo Miso Hot Pot, is introduced in her DONABE Cookbook.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eDuring the 1,000-year period when Kyoto was Japan’s capital city, Saikyo Miso was a special ingredient in imperial palace ceremonial feasts, as well as Zen Buddhist vegetarian cuisine, which became an integral part of Kyoto cuisine through the present day. Unlike typical miso which uses a higher ratio of soybean to koji rice (malted rice), Saikyo Miso uses more than double the amount of rice to soybean ratio, creating a miso with mild taste, less sodium, and elegant color. The fact that Saikyo Miso uses more rice in its production meant that it was a historically prized and valuable miso.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePremium Class Saikyo Miso, \"Takumi\"\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade from high quality soybeans and rice grown in Japan, with mineral-rich \"Ako-jio\" sea salt, this Saikyo Miso \"Takumi\" is a premium-grade Saikyo Miso\u003cspan\u003e.

Their Saikyo Miso brewing process at Honda Miso takes place in Kyoto’s Tanba region, known for its water’s natural purity, which is essential for flavorful miso. Their production facility maintains ancestral brewing techniques, while also incorporating modern developments such as temperature control, in the production of the highest quality Saikyo Miso.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHonda Miso   \u0026lt; http:\/\/www.honda-miso.co.jp\/en\/\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMrs. Donabe's Recipe Suggestions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCreamy Kabocha and Corn Potage\u003cbr\u003eCold Somen Noodles with Golden Sesame Dipping Sauce\u003cbr\u003eKyoto-Style Saikyo Miso Hot Pot (Check out in Naoko's DONABE cookbook)\u003cbr\u003eBlack Cod Hot Pot in Saikyo Miso \u0026amp; Soymilk Broth\u003cbr\u003eCold Udon with Golden Sesame Dipping Sauce\u003cbr\u003eMiso Butter Hot Pot with Salmon and Pork\u003cbr\u003eRoasted Salt-Marinated Pork\u003cbr\u003eToban Beef with Miso Beef\u003cbr\u003eScallop Hot Pot in Miso Broth\u003cbr\u003eSteamed Pork and Cabbage Shabu Shabu\u0026lt;\u003cbr\u003eSesame and Saikyo Miso Hot Pot with Chicken Meatballs\u003cbr\u003eChicken \u0026amp; Tofu Mille Feuille Nabe\u003cbr\u003eSteamed Salmon and English Pea Soup\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"content2\" class=\"tab-content\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNet weight: 13 oz | 375 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIngredients: Rice, Soy Beans, Water, Salt, Millet Jelly, Ethyl Alcohol\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProducer: Saikyo Miso (Brand by Honda Miso)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: Kyoto, Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUsage \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStore in a cool, dark place\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRefrigerate after opening\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"content3\" class=\"tab-content\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDomestic Orders\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUsually ships out in-stock items within 3 business days of order.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe use FedEx, USPS Priority Mail, or USPS First Class Mail to ship our products, depending on the size and weight of the package.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRead about the shipping information and terms in our Customer Service Page.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree shipping with purchase of $375 or more!
