A simple asian-style broccoli salad tossed in a miso-infused dressing with crunchy toasted almonds. Simple Japanese ingredients like soy sauce, rice vinegar and shiro miso paste add depth of flavor to an otherwise simple side dish. One that is pleasantly nutty, savory and lightly sweet in flavor.<\/p>\n

Asian-Style Broccoli Salad with Miso Dressing<\/h2>\n

Miso is one of those things I am trying to re-introduce into my cooking routine and in more creative ways than just miso soup. So my thinking here was, how do I add a little more spark to a vegetable that is more often then not served as a simple steamed side dish. The answer: by introducing some Japanese inspired flavours.<\/p>\n

\nMiso paste add umami<\/h2>\n

Coming from Vancouver, a cultural melting pot, I am quite require familiar with many types of Asian cuisine and in particular Japanese food. So miso paste has been something I have cooked with a lot over the years, but mostly using red miso, which gives a deep umami<\/a> flavor to miso soup.<\/p>\n

Miso paste – from mild to strong<\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re new to miso, this fermented soybean paste comes in different types, ranging from light and mild to dark and strong. This recipe uses the mildest and sweetest variety, called shiro miso, which is white to pale yellow in color and made from rice and soybeans. It\u2019s the perfect choice for dressing, as it adds some sweet, savory depth and invigorates the palette.<\/p>\n

For this dressing, shiro miso<\/a> together with Japanese rice vinegar<\/a>, soy sauce, roasted sesame oil<\/a>, natural unrefined sugar, together with a couple other basic pantry ingredients enhance the essence of Asian flavor.<\/p>\n
