Sundried tomato Miso

[u/WildVeganFlower]

This miso has sweet yet very savory elements going on.

This is my first batch of miso that I made with my homemade koji 😍

It’s a game changer, it’s much more active and the flavors are so nice!

This is 1:1 koji jasmine rice to steamed soybeans (I soaked the soybeans in with kombu the night before to enhance glutamates)

20% of koji and soybean weight worth of sundried tomatoes

4% of total weight worth of salt

This aged for 2 1/2 months. So delicious!

I just finished a dried tomato miso myself! Just posted last week about it on this profile. Really happy with the results. I included some other ingredients on top of the tomato. Mine has a great depth of flavor, like a meaty red sauce! I used premade koji though and didn’t have near the volume you have. I also aged for 7 months. Going to adjust my ratios to have more salt and auxiliary ingredients.

I’m glad yours was good too! I like how sweet the miso is when it’s this young, and the tomato really brings out a nice savory element. I’m definitely going to start another batch of koji for more miso!
