Miso.
Miso is my wonder drug. It is the ummami of all flavors. And what it does when mixed with butter is, well, heavenly.
Did you know that while maintaining a low carb lifestyle, you need more sodium? That’s why I love miso, it does contain a lot of sodium.
Oh remember there are good carbs, that are in fruits and vegetables, and bad carbs that are in grains and baked goods, starchy veggies, full fat cheeses, butter, and sweetened frozen yogurt. Sugar and alcohol are also the root of some of that evil.
I know I used butter in this recipe, but only one tablespoon and I don’t do it every day.
I know you will love using miso in your recipes. My next project is to find a better natural alternative to butter.
Until then,
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.
