Common questions
How long does miso last in the fridge?
1 year from the date of purchase.
Can you freeze miso, and for how long?
Storing it in the freezer is not recommended.
How can I tell if miso has gone bad?
Throw it out if it smells off, feels slimy or sticky, shows mold, or has changed color. Storage times assume it was handled safely and kept cold the whole time.
