If I try this tomorrow morning and it’s bad I’m coming after OP
Ah, shit. I hope we have similar palates!
Y'all motherfuckers need Marmite.
Top with some strong cheddar.
Bovril is good for this too.
I've never tried it or even thought of it, but this doesn't sound half bad. I'd imagine it would be salty and savory similar to vegemite
I was just thinking that this person needs a bit of marmite in their life
I always wanted to try it, now I have a reason to!
Just don't spread it thick like it's Nutella, or you might regret it.
I respectfully disagree.
You and I can spread it on so thick we can't see the toast underneath, but we were raised on it. OP hasn't developed a love for our salt paste yet.
Fair!! Ya gotta work up to it.
If you're in the US, they sell it at Publix and Kroger/Ralphs/etc in the international aisles, and also at World market.
I wholeheartedly recommend Miso Butter Pasta. There are several variations but the main idea is to thoroughly blend a mix of soft (room temperature) Butter and Miso and to use it like a pesto with Spaghetti or Linguine.
My favourite version is to add a tablespoon of Mirin and a dash of roasted sesame oil into the butter miso mix and stir it into a paste. When pasta is ready, mingle hot pasta with the paste so that every noodle is evenly coated, arrange on a plate and sprinkle with a mix of white and black sesame seeds, drop spring onion chopped into small rings on top, voilá!
I am so trying this, sounds delicious. Thank you!
You are welcome! If you try and like it there a several interesting variations you could do after that, like adding fried mushrooms / garlic / onions on top. If you are into it´s numbing flavour, you could add ground Szechuan pepper into the paste, which imo fits very well because of it´s citrus notes, enjoy!
I just eat spoonfuls of the shit
I use nutritional yeast on toast. Miso sounds like itd taste fantastic on buttered toast but I need to reduce Sodium intake
I have been known to have marmite and nutritional yeast on toast... it tastes like B12
A bit of saltiness you say? Looking for a dose of umami flavour?
I haven't tried that but roasted carrots with miso, butter, and honey are amazing.
A teaspoon of miso paste in the water makes amazing rice
I sprinkle flaked salt on the melted butter.
My wife thought this was the weirdest thing until I fed it to her, now she thinks it's just the best
That sounds amazing. So many great suggestions in this thread!
If you are in the US and used to our preservative-filled bread, a $30 bread maker like the Dash, some flaked salt, and room-temperature real butter will make you wonder if you've ever had bread before.
That makes sense because usually a stick of butter is salted
That's nothing. Get some mango chili sauce. Now you're cooking.
have not. But I like salt on my grapefruit, so maybe I will try it.
That’s an interesting thought!
Is it weird that I've never heard of miso paste? Or vegemite?
not unless you're an aussie
We make a creamy potato-leek soup with miso paste. So damn good.
