Spice x Japanese Fermented Seasoning Series: from the front, "Spice Miso," "Spice Shio Koji," "Spice Soy Sauce"

In SPICE KINGDOM, the combination of spices and Japanese fermented seasonings began with "Spice Soy Sauce," which uses soy sauce, a familiar ingredient in Japanese cuisine. It has now grown into a pillar product of SPICE KINGDOM.

And now, "Spice Miso" using miso and "Spice Shio Koji" using shio koji (salted rice malt) have newly joined the lineup.

Together with "Spice Soy Sauce," we bring "Spice Miso" and "Spice Shio Koji" to your dining table, branded as the "Spice x Japanese Fermented Seasoning Series" that can be used in various cooking scenes.

Please enjoy the Japanese-Western eclectic harmony of spices and Japanese fermented seasonings.

[Product Introduction]

Spice Miso

This is a liquid spice that creates an energizing flavor using spices such as garlic and onion, based on the umami of three types of miso, bonito, kelp, pork, and vegetables. (SPICE KINGDOM's Western-style soup stock "Amber Vegetable Bouillon" is used in the ingredients)

It features a richness and umami achieved through repeated trial production, such as using three different forms of garlic alone: grated, roughly chopped chips, and powder.

Because of its chunky texture, each pack is filled by hand before being delivered.

Spice Shio Koji

This is a liquid spice that finishes dishes with a refreshing and clean taste, featuring the sweetness of shio koji and the freshness of ginger.

Based on chicken stock and pork extract, the natural sweetness of shio koji and the freshness of ginger are added, with the umami of bonito and kelp used as a secret ingredient. (SPICE KINGDOM's Western-style soup stock "Amber Vegetable Bouillon" is used in the ingredients)

Furthermore, spices like aromatic vegetables and white pepper create a light yet deep flavor.

Because of its chunky texture, each pack is filled by hand before being delivered.
