Have you ever tried putting a tiny bit of miso paste on your buttered toast? (lemmy.world)

It's fucking delicious, that's for sure. A perfect addition of saltiness. And it has to be the tiniest bit, anything more is overpowering.

Am I the only weirdo who enjoys this?

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!

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!
