Equipment

  • 1 small saucepan

Ingredients
  

  • 3 tablespoon butter I used salted butter but you can used unsalted; choose butter from grass-fed cows if possible
  • 2 tablespoon miso I used red miso for this recipe
  • 2 tablespoon soy sauce If you are sensitive to salt, you may want to cut down on the amount of soy sauce

Instructions
 

  • Place all of the ingredients in a small saucepan on a med-low heat.

  • Allow the butter to melt for a bit, and then whisk until you obtain a silky smooth sauce. This took me about 5 minutes.

Notes

Serve this warm, poured over your favorite roasted veggies or chicken.  
This miso sauce with butter is salty, so if you are watching your salt you can use it sparingly. 
Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container in your fridge.  Probably best used within a week or so for freshness.
When taken out of the fridge, it does have the consistency of a soft butter.  So you could spread it like butter on whatever you fancy!
