Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 10 servings servings

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened and cut into cubes

  • 2 tablespoons white miso paste

  • 1 clove roasted garlic (optional)

Directions

  1. Place butter, miso paste, and garlic into a mini food processor, and blend until smooth, scraping down the sides of the processor halfway through. If you don’t have a mini processor, just cream the ingredients together with a fork until well blended.

  2. Transfer to an airtight container with a lid, and store in the refrigerator or freezer.

    Cook's Note:

    White miso is milder, lighter, and sweeter than red miso paste. It gives you a hint of umami and deepens the flavor. Recipe may be doubled if desired.
