Miso-Avocado Toast
White miso paste adds a complex, savory flavor to this dish. While you’ll need an hour to marinate the avocado, everything comes together fairly quickly after that.
Makes 4-6 servings
White Miso Marinade
1 1/2 cups white miso
1/4 cup sake
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1 tsp toasted sesame oil
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup soy sauce
3 Tbsp rice wine vinegar
Miso-Avocado Toast
4 avocados, halved and pitted (don't peel)
1/2 cup pepitas (hulled pumpkin seeds)
1/2 Tbsp fresh lime juice
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 large slices sourdough bread
1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
1 cup julienned jícama
2 cups baby mustard greens
Instructions
1
White Miso Marinade: In a blender or food processor, combine all ingredients and blend until smooth, about 2 minutes.
2
In a large bowl, combine the avocado halves with the marinade. Marinate for at least 1 hour or up to 12 hours.
3
Remove the avocado halves from the marinade. Heat a grill pan or stove-top griddle over high heat and grill the avocados, flesh side down, until caramelized, about 3 minutes. Remove from the grill and scoop the flesh out of the peel into a bowl. Mix with the pepitas and lime juice. Add salt and pepper to taste.
4
Toast or grill the sourdough bread. Cut each piece of toast in half. Spread the avocado mixture on each piece of toast. Top with cherry tomatoes, jicama, and mustard greens.
