SayMEE-sohzUS/ˈmisoʊz/UK/ˈmiːsəʊz/
- 1Plural of miso.
Lighter misos tend to be sweeter, while darker ones taste saltier and bolder.
The chef kept four misos on hand for different dishes.
Note
A plural that exists only because miso is normally a mass noun: you stir in some miso, not a miso. The count form appears when kinds are being told apart, such as lighter and darker pastes, much as cheeses or wines name varieties. The informal clipping of misoprostol, the drug name, is uncountable too and is not used in the plural, so this form points to the fermented soybean paste.
