A new ingredient for your kitchens! Pepita miso, made from roasted organic hullless pumpkin seeds grown in the Finger Lakes in NY- about 30 minutes from my hometown. Sometimes we talk about a “sweet” miso - sweet in the sense that it has slightly lower salt, shorter fermentation- which yields a sweeter note. Pepita miso is this- but additionally, the roasted pumpkin seeds give us a different kind of sweetness, almost a frangipane quality. Absolutely fantastic broth miso, but also one that would be excellent for baking applications, or any dish that has a sweet-salty balance. Check out the Persian dish Shish Andaz, one of the first things we added this miso to. We’re really excited to hear your feedback. And, as always, refrigerate your miso.
