Miso, Three-Year Barley - 12 x 16 OZ - Certified Organic - From South River Miso, Conway, MA

"Three-Year Barley Miso is our original hearty miso variety. It is ideal for hearty soups and stews and for simple medicinal healing broths. Three-Year Barley first gained special recognition in the early 1990's when the popular magazine of that time, East West Journal, gave this miso a special award: "The Most Hearty Miso"."

"In much of rural Japan, before the advent of commercial 'wonder bread' white rice, barley was the whole grain 'bread of the people', and barley miso was the staple of rural households and was made int he farmhouse tradition of miso-making. In Japan, barley miso was the choice of samurai warriors, who took it with them into battle."

"Aged for a minimum of three summers--27 months--it is earthy, dark brown in color." - Adapted from South River's website
