Savory Miso Toast

✓ USDA-verified nutrition data

Ingredients

• 2 slices Sourdough
• 2 tbsp Butter
• 1 tbsp White miso
• 1 Scallion

Steps

1. Heat the broiler to high and position an oven rack about 6 inches from the heating element.
2. Mash the softened butter with the white miso in a small bowl until completely smooth and streak-free.
3. Spread the miso butter thickly onto the sourdough slices, all the way edge to edge.
4. Broil 2 to 3 minutes, watching closely, until the topping is bubbling and browned in spots.
5. The toast is done when the edges are deep golden and the miso butter smells nutty and caramelized.
6. Shower with the thinly sliced scallion.
7. Serve immediately. The contrast of shattering-crisp toast and molten topping is the whole point. Beginner tip: use white, shiro, miso here. It’s mild and slightly sweet, red miso would completely overpower the toast.
