Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, beat the peanut butter, miso paste, honey, and water together until they are completely blended.

Chef Tips

Miso paste is made from fermented soy beans and is a complete source of protein.

Most grocery stores now carry miso – it’s usually kept next to the tofu in a refrigerated section. There are other kinds of miso than white miso, including yellow and red miso, which are much stronger in flavor and saltiness.
