Traditional Miso-Cup w/Tofu

Organic traditional soup with tofu. Freeze-dried instant! Just add hot water. Four single servings.

Miso is one of Asia's most important foods. The ancient Chinese first discovered this remarkable delicacy which is created by aging soybeans and rice with a special starter culture. Salt is used to regulate this natural aging process. Originally, reserved exclusively for nobility, miso was later shared more widely, and became a valued staple in kitchens throughout the Orient for over two thousand years.

Today miso soup is enjoyed worldwide and is especially valuable to those who are moving away from high meat diets. Miso boasts a delicious, well rounded taste, and balanced nutritional profile. It may be used in place of meat or poultry as the foundation for soups, stews and many traditional dishes. Because miso is a vegetarian soy food, it is totally free from cholesterol and saturated fats.

Unlike other instant soups, Miso-Cup relies exclusively upon natural, unpasteurized miso, which is freeze-dried fresh from the aging barrels, without additives or preservatives. 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, which maintain, as much as possible, the naturally occurring living cultures for which fresh miso is prized. Only choice, vegetable ingredients are added to make Miso-Cup complete. Miso-Cup makes wonderful soup in seconds, and may also be used to season all sorts of recipes.

Like all Edward & Sons products, Miso-Cup offers the discerning consumer 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!

INGREDIENTS: Freeze-Dried Organic Miso (Organic Soybeans, Cultured Organic Rice, Sea Salt), Freeze-Dried Organic Tofu (Water, Organic Soybeans, Nigari [Calcium Sulfate or Magnesium Chloride]), Organic Onion Powder, Organic Onions, Wakame Seaweed, Organic Parsley.
