Japanese Dried Sweet Potato Bar, Miso Brownie

Available from Mixed Pantry when we last checked. Sold from the shop’s own store; the price there is the one that counts.

Meet the snack that proves Japan knows what it's doing. This miso brownie bar starts with hoshiimo (干し芋)—dried sweet potato that's been slowly roasted over volcanic charcoal in Kagoshima—then gets a protein boost and umami twist from miso and cocoa. The result? Ten grams of plant protein, a chewy texture, and a sweet-savory flavor that shouldn't work but absolutely does. No tricks, no additives. Just real ingredients doing real work: vegan, gluten-free, and naturally energizing for your morning,
