| A purée of fermented beans full of rich umami flavour. |
Similar to a Japanese miso but made with British-grown fava beans, our fermented Fava Bean Umami Paste is packed with deep rich umami flavour with subtle notes of sherry.
Awarded two stars in the 2019 and 2018 Great Taste Awards, here are a few of the judges' comments:
Adds to stirfries, stews, soups, dressings, stocks and more for umami depth and fruity, sherry flavour. We’ve even been spreading it on toast!
Add about half a teaspoon per serving to almost any dish for added depth of flavour.
Store unopened in a cool, dry place. Keep refrigerated after opening and use by best before date.
Fava Beans, Water, Salt, Live Cultures*

Our Fava Umami Paste is fermented in the same way as many soya bean ferments used for miso, black beans, soy sauce or tamari, but using fava beans instead of soy beans. It's made with just fava beans, water and salt, fermented with a live culture of Lactobacillus delbrueckii, Aspergillus sojae and Zygosaccharomyces rouxii.
Suitable for vegans.
Now packed in recyclable glass jar with metal lid.
