Miso mayo is a creamy, savory condiment made by combining mayonnaise with miso paste, typically resulting in a slightly sweet and umami-rich flavor profile. It can be used as a dressing, dip, or spread.
Originating from Japan, miso is a traditional fermented soybean paste that has been a staple in Japanese cuisine for centuries. The concept of combining miso with mayonnaise is a more contemporary fusion, combining Western and Japanese flavors.
Miso mayo has a creamy texture with a rich umami flavor from the miso and a slight tanginess from the mayonnaise, often with a hint of sweetness.
