Delicious and very easy to prepare. If you like a milder, and
less salty taste, try mellow white or yellow miso instead of red. The tahini can be replaced
with roasted soy nut butter if you want a double dose of soy.
Ingredients
2 Tbsp (30g) red miso
3 Tbsp (45g) toasted sesame tahini or soy nut butter
1 Tbsp (15mL) water or stock
A squirt of fresh lemon juice optional
1/4 tsp (0.5g) ground ginger or 1/2 tsp (3mL) fresh ginger
Juice from grated ginger root
1 clove garlic, pressed
1 Tbsp (10g) slivered scallion greens or chives
Directions
In a small bowl, combine all ingredients.
Spread on artisan bread, such as sweet potato bread, and serve with
soup.
Note: Keeps, covered, in the refrigerator 1 to 2 weeks.
