Guest guest Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 I tried a recipe with 1/3 miso, 1/3 shredded carrots, and 1/3 tahini. I HATED it. I tried the ingredients separately and determined it was the miso that I hated. However, lots of recipes call for a very small portion of miso. I’m wondering if, in small quantities, it would be okay. I sure hate to pass up all those recipes. Ideas, anyone? Judy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 Hi JudyThat is quite a lot of miso!Miso comes in many many different varieties, some more strongly flavoured than others. Although miso is very salty, it contains lots of good-for-you stuff too!My fave salad dressing is tahini thinned with water, plus a small amount of miso.If you've got miso to use up, I'd suggest just adding it in very small quantities to various dishes (but don't heat it to boiling point or you'll kill the nutrients).

Guest guest Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 Thanks, Alice. Maybe I should have clarified… I gave away the miso and would need to buy more. That’s why I’m hesitant to try it again. I hate to put out the money if I’m just going to give it away again.

Guest guest Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 Aha! You could ask for a mild-flavoured variety at a store where they actually know their products, or you could probably sub soya sauce 1:1. On 31/08/2009, at 7:19 AM, Judy Goldsmith wrote:Thanks, Alice.
