If you haven't tried miso, I hope that after reading my little recipe you will buy it. It’s primarily a fermented soy bean paste commonly used as a condiment in Japan, but now it’s used everywhere, and—in addition—may have a favorable influence on health. It’s quite tasty and is in itself a satisfying meal. If you hesitate to dip in to the pot of miso, rest assured. Miso is unbeatable at giving delicious flavor to a marinade or vinaigrette. And you will find a thousand more uses!
