The Story of Miso-Cup Miso (pronounced meè-so) has deliciously nourished the Asian people for thousands of years. Originally reserved exclusively for nobility, miso was later shared more widely, and became a valued staple in kitchen throughout the orients. Recently discovered in the West, miso soup is now enjoyed worldwide, thanks to its wonderful flavor and unique nutritional profile. To make Reduced Sodium Miso-Cup, our miso craftsmen age certified organic soybeans and organic rice with a special started culture. Sea salt is used to regulate this natural aging process. Next, we freeze-dry the fresh unpasteurized miso retain its maximum benefits. We add select natural ingredients including organic tofu (another great soyfood) to make Reduced Sodium Miso-Cup complete. Much like yogurt, miso is considered to be a living food. That is why Edward & Sons takes extra care to use costly freeze-drying methods that maintain, as much as possible the naturally occurring living cultures for which fresh miso is prized. Miso-Cup is a vegan soyfood, boasting a rich, satisfying flavor that easily replaces meat or poultry as the foundation for soups, stews, or gravies. It is a natural source of isoflavones and contains no cholesterol or trans fat. Like all Edward & Sons products, Miso-Cup offer discerning consumers true "Convenience Without Compromise" Perhaps the first "convenience health food", Miso-Cup has been nourishing people on the go since 1978, and has become internationally famous as America"s leading natural instant soup.
