how long does miso last?

[Guest guest]

I have had a package of miso for nearly a decade. I'm almost out, but what I

still have is still good--just cooked with it about two weeks ago. I keep

the miso in a small (about 200 ml) Tupperware container that is air-tight.

how long does miso last?

 

 

I usually buy a small tub of the stuff, and don't use it

*that* much, and was curious how long I can use it for

safely. Any ideas? Weeks, months? Now that we're

getting into soup-making season, I'll be using more

of it now, but odds are low I'd use up a whole container

of it within 6 months - is it reasonable to expect it

to last that long?

 

Thanks!

Hi! I bought a tub of miso, and I am wondering how long it will keep

in the fridge. The sell by date is 9-2006. I just opened it today.

 

I always ask myself the same question everytime I buy miso...and now I

actually remembered to ask you all!

 

Thanks in advance,

A very long time! Probably longer than the year listed on the

package...

I am pretty sure I have kept miso, opened, in the fridge, for several

months (eight months?) and it has been fine. I'm not making any

promises though :-)
