What does miso taste like?

It's salty, savory, and similar to soy sauce. It has an umami flavor that's hard to replicate with other ingredients.

Miso is a fermented soybean paste originating in Japan. It's mostly known for being used in miso soup but it can be used in a large variety of dishes.

Instructions

Add everything into a medium bowl and whisk vigorously until well-mixed and emulsified.
Alternatively, you can also do this in a jar and just shake everything up to mix the dressing. I find the miso blends in better sometimes with a whisk.
Store the dressing in an airtight container in the fridge until ready to use.

Notes

Storing: Store the dressing in the fridge for up to a week.

Ginger juice: I use ginger juice by The Ginger People in cooking to make things easier. It’s especially great in dressings and sauces you want to keep extra smooth.

Toasted sesame seeds: Toast sesame seeds in a pan over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes. Be careful not to burn them.
