How Miso is Made

Ever wonder what miso is? Now you can find out! I visit the local Aguritto factory on Kume Island in Okinawa, an island famous for its delicious miso, and learn how miso is made. For more on how miso is made and great recipes visit morethingsjapan...

[@goukenslay7555]

thanks for this. I just had a sudden need to know how miso was made out of nowhere

[@maylacutie6448]

Me too. This product is good for good bacteria in the gut...

[@diikay1352]

Same. After seeing some miso soup. I was wondering about this

[@penguinscanfly5796]

lol same

[@MiguelAbd]

It's hard to find videos about the process, thank you!

[@leavemealone4904]

We are re-booting making miso in the UK. Fuck the gov allowing imports ony

[@bnb7094]

got to make your own stuff because the world is shutting down

[@PCBSLC]

I've been enjoying making miso soup from paste and wondered exactly how it was made. And thanks to you, now I know!
Excellent video!

[@mamaharumi]

Same here but put it in your stews, roasts, curry, etc. Its phenomenal! Other yeast extracts are also good too in a stew like marmite/vegemite. But not as good to me.

I really wish that the music was half as loud...

1:56 "Thats a kojiki" *fades to black*. Yep completely know what the hell that is, thanks for explaining.

[@KhanhTheLearner]

Koji is a type of bacterium called Aspergillus oryzae ('kin' in Japanese means bacteria, so koji kin = koji bacteria). It grows on rice and is used in many cultured food products, like miso and sake, Japanese alcohol.

[@Blufall]

@@KhanhTheLearner Technically it's a fungus, not a bacteria.

[@KhanhTheLearner]

@@Blufall Oh I didn't know haha. Thanks for the correction. Learn sth new every day :D.

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@crayna2000]

Just watched this one - GREAT information, thanks so much!

[@GoofyGoth]

Thank you for the video! It is awesome!

[@mickaelf.7854]

Super merci, pleins d'infos

[@MoreThingsJapanese]

Thanks for commenting! It was really interesting to film over the two days it took to make the miso!

[@elietedarce1266]

The other misso production I saw needed to stir the misso each day, during fermentation. The one in your video fement in sealed pack.

[@dukenegju]

Interesting, thank you! How long do they steam the soy beans and are they preboiled? Love

[@rachelhudson4662]

I love miso on toast. A bit like a mild version of marmite.

[@davidwhite8168]

Thank you!

[@natek3954]

Thank you making this! I also thought miso was mostly soy.

[@1LvoeU]

Thanks, great video.
Would you have the list of all the ingredients and measurements?

[@leavemealone4904]

People who watch this think they know already. I can not wait to share the variations that make miso. MISO

[@jjmiso6703]

[@OAK-808]

[@NATUREMAN360]

These people wear no gloves 🧤

[@kilrahbi]

[@NATUREMAN360]

Finally found a good video but that annoying stupid music

Wouldn't the salt kill the live cultures?

[@leavemealone4904]

Not allowed in the UK by Govenment

[@gretchenmead3222]

Really? Why not?

[@Chopinzee613]

Shocking how they handle the food with their bare hands--no gloves.

[@brandongrave4997]

Boring

[@consuelaallen4372]

I wish they had on gloves tho

[@kimmelena4999]

As long as it's made by a Japanese I trust their hands

[@Iamjoiu]

Pizza is usually never made with gloves on.... 🥺
