As many of you know, fermented foods are perhaps some of the healthiest foods we can eat. Every culture has their take- from Sauerkraut,
kimchi, Kefir, Miso, Tempeh, Fermented Asian Cabbage and Mustard Greens, Kombucha, Soy Sauce and Tamari, Rejuvelac, sorghum, beet kvass, Yoghurt etc.Culturing/Fermenting, or pre-digesting the food, supplies the body with a host of healthy bacteria
--probiotics (acidophilus, and bifidus are some of the most common known strains- I highly recommend New Roots Ultra Acidophilus
) that support the immune system, heal the digestive tract, and ward off disease. Since they are pre-digested, fermented/cultured foods are also much easier for the body to digest and assimilate the nutrients without taxing the body.In particular, I want to review MISHIMA
's line of Miso Soups, which I have been enjoying for years now. The company is all natural, without MSG, and has an exquisite taste. They use NON-GMO soy and organic ingredients.My particular favorite has to be their WHITE MISO Soup
. Each soup variety comes in a package with 3 packets of soup in it.While they make a variety of non-Miso soups
, I want to focus just on the Miso varieties. They have White Miso, Red Miso, Mixed Miso, Low Sodium White, and a Spicy Miso soup.
As for convenience, all you need to do is add hot water and let the soup sit for awhile, stir it up, and enjoy! Besides all the health benefits, Miso soups is also extremely low in calories and fat; however, if you are watching your sodium, make sure you check the stats on the back or grab a lower sodium variety.
Here is some further information, the ingredients and nutritional stats:
Great as a Dip Try Mishima instant miso soup as a dip, dressing or sauce. For a great dip, mix one packet (more or less depending on desired flavor) with sour cream, soft cream cheese, or mayo and stir well. Serve with veggie sticks for a great low carb snack!
Directions Empty contents of one packet into a soup mug or small bowl. Stir in 2/3 cup of boiling water and mix well. Let stand for one minute to allow vegetables to re-hydrate. Contains 3 individual servings.
Quick and easy meal solution.
