California-based Omiso makes high-quality yellow Amakuchi miso inspired by the traditional fermentation methods of microbreweries in Japan. Founder Ai Fujimoto ferments hand-picked Japanese koji rice with organic soybeans she mashes by hand in Omiso’s Los Angeles kitchen. The Amakuchi miso has a high koji ratio—which imparts a sweet, fruity aroma and flavor—unlike overly salty supermarket versions. Under the guidance of Omiso’s fermentation specialist, Nozomi Jinguji, the yellow miso ages for three to eight months before it’s ready to use. The result is a subtly sweet, nuanced miso you can store in the fridge and scoop anytime for marinades, roasted meat and vegetables, compound butters, glazes, baked goods and more.
