What kind of dish is Miso mayo roast chicken??

Miso-Mayonnaise Roasted Chicken is an incredibly appetizing main dish where chicken is marinated in a special Miso-Mayonnaise sauce and slowly baked in the oven until wonderfully fragrant.

This dish achieves a deep, rich flavor easily by combining two key condiments commonly found in Japanese home refrigerators: Miso and Mayonnaise.

Beyond this roast chicken, Miso-Mayonnaise is a versatile, all-purpose sauce that can be used for various dishes, such as a dip for vegetable sticks or a glaze for grilled fish.

This recipe uses chicken thighs, but you can easily substitute chicken breast or pork. By marinating the meat in a miso mayonnaise marinade, it becomes tender and juicy, even though it tends to dry out when grilled.

【The Power of “Double Enzyme Action”】

The Power of Miso: The enzymes contained in miso have the function of breaking down proteins and tenderizing the meat.

The ingredients’ inherent properties are utilized to ensure the meat is finished surprisingly tender and juicy.

The Power of Mayonnaise: The vinegar in mayonnaise also has a protein-decomposing effect, while the oil derived from the egg boosts the meat’s moisture retention, sealing in the juiciness.

How to Choose Miso and Its Characteristics

Miso is a traditional Japanese seasoning made primarily from soybeans and fermented with rice koji or barley koji.

[The Diversity of Miso and Our Commitment]

Miso is classified into various types, such as red miso, white miso, and barley miso, depending on the type of koji used and the fermentation period.

This roast chicken recipe uses red miso for a richer flavor and deeper umami.
