Also filed under the category of “Too Simple for a Recipe” is a very basic miso and citrus glaze I use a lot. Well, in interest of not assuming that this stuff is obvious to everyone, here’s a very quick recipe.
The Stuff
- 1/3 c. freshly squeezed citrus juice (lemon, orange, lime, grapefruit…)
- 2 T miso
- freshly ground pepper, to taste
- 1/2 t freshly ground ginger, optional
- drizzle of sesame oil, optional
The Making
Whisk together all ingredients in a small dish. Use as a glaze for grilling or a sauce for stir-fries. Also makes a nice dipping sauce.
Yep, that’s as hard as it gets. Get whisking!
A note about miso… red miso will give this a darker, savory note. White or chickpea miso will make this very light, salty and slightly sweet. Go crazy, experiment!
