Thank you to all who made it to today’s miso making event at the Compost Education Centre! I had so much fun, and really enjoyed spending that time with you.
Here’s the leftover miso, packed into a 2 litre jar and headed for my basement.
Some useful links for you all:
- This is the recipe for the miso we made today
