Shinjo-miso Peanuts
Japanese notation "新庄みそピーナッツ"
The catchy “Carp-kun” package of this bean snack is made by Shinjo Miso, a miso manufacturer that has been in Hiroshima for over 90 years. The package is a must-have for all Carp fans.
“Shinjo Miso Peanuts” are roasted peanuts wrapped in sweet and spicy red miso paste.
It looks like the peanuts are coated with miso paste and dusted with sugar.
The crispy texture makes it hard to stop taking the next bite.
As you can see, the peanuts are well coated with miso paste around them, and they look delicious.
The balance of the roasted peanut aroma, the richness and flavor of the miso coating, and the sugar sprinkled on the peanuts is exquisite and delicious, as expected. It is also a good accompaniment to beer. The miso is from a traditional miso shop, so the peanuts are elegant, yet aromatic and rich, and you can feel the presence of the miso.
