miso vs. soy bean paste
Ice Cream:
I went to then Asian supermarket and got some soy bean paste in a jar, from the shelves, not refrigerated. I assumed the product was miso, but DH thinks it isn't. He thinks it's not fermented. The product is from Korea. Any ideas about this? Google search did not help me.
I did not taste it yet, because I still have an open container of miso in the fridge.

What do you do with miso? I mean other than making soup.
Ice Cream:
I make soup with it and also coat salmon with it before grilling.

You mean something like this?
If so, it's doenjang, a traditional Korean fermented soybean paste.
Make jjigae with it:
If not, have no idea.
Post a picture of the jar you bought.
Maybe it'll say what it is.
