[Problem] To provide a powdery miso having improved moisture absorption resistance, a method for producing the powdery miso, and a method for improving the moisture absorption resistance of the powdery miso. An XRD peak intensity ratio at each diffraction angle when a content of a nucleic acid is 500 to 10000 mg / 100 g and a diffraction peak intensity at a diffraction angle 2θ = 31.7 ° ± 0.5 ° is set to 100 is predetermined. Powder miso that satisfies the above conditions and has improved moisture absorption resistance. The powder miso is preferably a freeze-dried powder. A powder comprising: an adding step of adding a nucleic acid to miso so that the content of the nucleic acid becomes 500 to 10000 mg / 100 g; and a drying step of performing a drying treatment on the raw material after the adding step. Manufacturing method of miso. A method for improving the moisture absorption resistance of a powdery miso in which a nucleic acid is added to a miso so that the content of the nucleic acid is 500 to 10000 mg / 100 g, and then dried.
