Ingredients

• 2 slices Thick white bread
• 1 tbsp White miso
• 2 tbsp Butter
• 1 tsp Honey
• 1 tsp Sesame seeds

Steps

1. Soften the butter to room temperature so it blends smoothly.
2. Mash the miso, butter, and honey into a uniform golden spread; taste for a sweet-salty balance.
3. Spread thickly edge to edge on the bread; thin spots burn under the broiler.
4. Broil or toast 2 to 3 minutes until the topping bubbles and browns at the edges. Watch closely; miso goes from caramelized to burnt fast.
5. Shower with sesame seeds.
6. Serve hot, when the contrast of crisp toast and molten topping is at its best.
