Guest guest Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 miso, which is ground fermented soybean paste(with rice or barley er another ingredient added) there are several different varieties Miso varieties can be broken down into three basic types: white, yellow and red, which are determined by the ratio of beans to grains and how long the mixture ferments.. White miso, with the highest ratio of grains to soybeans and the shortest fermentation period, is the sweetest and mildest. Red miso has more soybeans, more salt, a longer fermentation period and a full-bodied flavor. Yellow miso falls between the two. It is what you are most likely to find on the shelves in the United States and the type that so many Japanese consume each morning.

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Miso ( fermented soya beans )comes in different forms light dark, sweet savoury. The important thing to remember is to not add it to boiling things or cook it at all, as this destroys the beneficial enzymes. I have not tried the white, but have used the dark brown rich miso.

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 Speaking of soy, I tried Silk Creamer for my coffee and I really love it! I went to a vegan cooking class on saturday and he used it in one of the recipes so I bought some after the class and tried it. fraggle <EBbrewpunx wrote: miso, which is ground fermented soybean paste(with rice or barley er another ingredient added) there are several different varieties Miso varieties can be broken down into three basic types: white, yellow and red, which are determined by the ratio of beans to grains and how long the mixture ferments..

Guest guest Posted October 26, 2005 Report Share Posted October 26, 2005 Hi Jonnie I don't like to bring bad news - but be careful with coffee whiteners - most of them contain hydrogenated fats (not good for you in general - not good for the heart and circulatory system) and some contain aluminium, which is thought to be involved in the development of Alzheimers disease. Check the ingredients. Jo , Jonnie Hellens <jonnie_hellens> wrote: > > Speaking of soy, I tried Silk Creamer for my coffee and I really love it!
