Miso with Black Garlic
Aged black garlic melted into white miso creates a deeply savory, slightly sweet paste with layered umami that defies simple description.
Ingredients
| 9 oz (255g) | white miso |
| 3 oz (85g) | black garlic cloves, peeled (about 20 cloves) |
| 1 tablespoon (15ml) | mirin |
| 1 teaspoon (5ml) | rice vinegar |
Instructions
- Mash the black garlic cloves with the back of a fork until completely smooth.
- Combine the mashed garlic with the white miso in a bowl.
- Add the mirin and rice vinegar; mix until fully incorporated and uniform.
- Transfer to a clean jar. Rest in the refrigerator for at least 2 days before using to allow the flavors to meld.
