You can enjoy these Tahini Miso Covered Cauliflower Steaks as an entree with a side of protein, greens, and maybe some grains/carbohydrates or as a side dish — regardless of how you enjoy it, the star of the show is really the tahini miso sauce.
What Is Miso?
Let’s talk about this fermented umami paste made from soybeans and mold called koji (Aspergillus oryzae from soybeans, barley, or rice). Miso is traditionally used in Japanese cooking and used for its health benefits and delicious umami taste.
Additionally, there are nutrients and things that make you feel good in this delicious paste! Miso contains probiotics, phosphorus, manganese, copper, vitamin K, and a variety of B vitamins.
Miso can be fermented for weeks and sometimes years depending on the brand and type, which lends itself to containing bacteria: probiotics. We know probiotics (good bacteria) are so important for creating a healthy microbiome and digestive function.
The great thing about miso is you can use it in so many ways from adding it to a simple salad dressing, a broth to make you feel good, a paste for roasting vegetables with, marinade, hummus, and the list goes on. I love adding miso to dressings and sauces because it creates this creamy texture without doing anything laborious to achieve it.
One thing to keep in mind when you’re purchasing miso is the color, in a nutshell, the darker the color miso the bolder the flavor which is great for hearty soups and stews. This is due to the time it’s been fermenting versus the lighter-colored misos which are slightly sweet and perfect for dressings, sauces, and even desserts.
