Miso Honey Dressing Recipes

HONEY MISO GLAZE

Steps:

• Whisk together the miso, vinegar, ginger, sesame oil, chili paste, soy sauce, garlic and 1/4 cup honey in a medium bowl until smooth. Taste for sweetness and whisk in more honey if desired. Stir in the cilantro and season with pepper. Spoon or brush on vegetables, meat or fish.

COLESLAW WITH MISO DRESSING

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, oil, miso and honey. Season with a pinch of salt (miso is salty, so don't overdo it) and a few grinds of black pepper.
• Roughly chop any long pieces of cabbage so they are bite-size. Transfer cabbage to a large bowl and toss with half the dressing, adding more as you like. Slaw can be made up to this point up to 1 day ahead.
• Just before serving, add cilantro, peanuts and lime juice, and toss to combine.

MISO-GINGER DRESSING

Steps:

• Put all ingredients except salt and pepper into a food processor and pulse a few times to mince carrots. Then let machine run for a minute or so, until mixture is chunky-smooth. (If you want it smoother, use a blender.) Taste and add salt and pepper to taste.

MISO-SESAME VINAIGRETTE THAT'S GOOD ON ANYTHING

Steps:

• Combine garlic, shallot, shoyu, vinegars, miso and sugar in a blender and blend on high speed until homogenous. (Alternatively, mash garlic and shallots in the bowl of a large granite or marble mortar and pestle into a fine paste using the pestle, then stir in the shoyu, vinegars, miso and sugar.)
• With the blender running on medium speed (the liquid should form a vortex but not jump up and splatter on the walls of the blender), slowly drizzle in the grapeseed oil. (If using a mortar and pestle, slowly drizzle in the oil as you stir vigorously with the pestle.)
• Transfer to a lidded jar. Stir in the sesame oil and sesame seeds with a spoon. Dressing can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks. Shake well before using.

Steps:

• Mix the miso, honey, and mustard together.
• Add the remaining ingredients, mix until smooth.
• Let sit 15 minutes before using.
