MARUKOME WHITE MISO, DASHI-IRI
Origin: Japan. Brand: Marukome. Size: 1kg. Code: to be confirmed.

Marukome, founded in 1854, is one of the most recognised names in Japanese miso, and this is its everyday white miso, the pale, mellow shiro style that fills the miso soup bowls of homes and restaurants across Japan. Smooth and soft, gently sweet, and restrained in salt, it is the approachable, all purpose face of miso rather than a dark, aged speciality.

What sets this particular miso apart is that it is dashi-iri, meaning the dashi is already in it. The paste is blended with katsuo, or bonito, and kombu stock, the two pillars of Japanese dashi, so the savoury backbone a cook would normally build separately is built in. A spoonful whisked into hot water becomes a complete, rounded miso soup in seconds, with no need to prepare stock first.

That convenience makes it a genuine workhorse for a busy kitchen. Beyond quick miso soup, it seasons dressings, glazes, and marinades with a ready made depth of bonito and kelp umami, and its pale colour keeps dishes light and clean. Consistent, reliable, and authentically made in Japan, it is the sort of miso a kitchen reaches for every single service.
