Miso Butter
Report
Miso Butter is a delicious and easy compound butter than can be used in so many different ways. The basic version only needs 5 minutes and 2 ingredients - miso and butter- but I also show you how to jazz it up.

Ingredients
- 1 Tablespoon Miso paste Any type is fine but may want to vary the quantity accordingly. (More miso if you use the more delicate lighter misos and less if you use a darker one. I used a red miso and hence a 1:4 miso: butter ratio. You can go up to 1:2 if using a light miso.)
- 4 Tablespoons unsalted butter, softened The butter should be soft to touch but not so melted it's greasy. You can mix it even when it's hard straight out of the fridge, but it'll take a bit more effort.
Optional ingredients
- 1 clove fresh garlic peeled and minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice Substitute: white rice vinegar or white wine vinegar
- 1 sprig spring onions This is more for texture than taste as the garlic flavor is quite strong! Substitute: coriander or 1 of these green onion alternatives
- light soy sauce to taste (if your miso isn't flavorful enough.) Substitute: salt
