Miso butter for almost everything

This is hardly a recipe, but it will up your game anytime you'd normally use butter.  By adding white (don't substitute another flavor) miso to your unsalted butter, you're adding an almost cheesy pop of umame that works with just about any cuisine. Just combine room-temperature butter and white miso in a 2:1 ratio (a small container of 4 tablespoons butter to 2 tablespoons miso will keep nicely in the fridge for last-minute additions) and mash it together with a fork until it looks pretty well mixed.

What can you do with it?

• Toss it into steamed vegetables with a little hot sauce for a side.
• Put it on your toast in the morning, immediately followed by some thinly sliced avocado and a perfect, 9-minute boiled egg.

• Add it to hot noodles as a quick sauce, before adding veggies and/or proteins.
• Slap a pat onto cooked fish or land animals as a finishing sauce.
• Use it in place of plain butter on corn on the cob or a baked potato.
