Product Overview

Take your recipes to the next level of umami deliciousness with Clearspring Organic Umami Paste with Ginger, a savoury & versatile condiment for all kinds of culinary uses.

This richly flavourful paste is traditionally made by adding a Koji culture to rice and leaving it to ferment. The umami is then mixed with organic soy sauce and fresh, fiery ginger.

Used to make soy sauce, mirin, miso and sake, Koji is at the heart of most Japanese cooking. It has been crowned as the National Fungus of Japan due to its central place in traditional Japanese food culture.

With a pouch of this amazing paste in the fridge, your meals will never be short on flavour. Clearspring Organic Umami Paste with Ginger is ideal for adding a savoury depth to soups, stews, stir-fries and marinades. It can also be enjoyed as a dip, salad dressing or in sushi.
