Happy, Healthy Holidays from South River Miso
Winter weather has come early for us in the Northeast. Eight inches of snow blanketed us recently! Warmth becomes essential. Snug coats, hats, and gloves come out of storage and we are happy at the stove again. Deep orange squash, dark green kale and pungent onions go into hearty soups and stews, perfectly seasoned with savory, healthy miso.
Our miso has been made in Massachusetts since 1982, always with organic ingredients in the traditional way. We use wood-fired cooking and age our miso in large wooden vats. All plant-based, South River Miso contains numerous beneficial microorganisms and enzymes. Warming and strengthening us from the inside, it brings savory complex flavors to everything from marinades to salad dressings, soups and party dips.
Choose from some of our nine delectable varieties, including soy and gluten free options. We offer a gift pack of four selected varieties-perfect for holiday gift giving.
Check out our delightful Tohum Sesame Tahini and Blue Heron Farm Maple Syrup both wonderful ingredients in holiday desserts.
May you have a healthy and enjoyable holiday time. We extend our deep gratitude to all of our wonderful loyal customers at South River Miso!
