Umami Chef is an allergen-free business creating Japanese-style “soy” sauce and miso using British-grown fava beans. Everything is naturally fermented and unpasteurised, meaning you get all those delicious gut-health benefits too.
Their range is multi award-winning, including being crowned “2025 Fermented Food of the Year” at the Great British Food Awards for their garlic miso.
Created from a passion for Japanese food, but an auto immune condition that prevented the consumption of soy and gluten, Umami Chef is on a mission to make allergen-friendly fermented foods that are just as delicious as they are safe. No “may contain” labels — just incredible gluten-free, dairy-free, and soy-free ferments — that are 100% vegan too.
