This is so easy and delicious. It also tastes very cheezy.
Miso tahini sauce
Ingredients
2 + 1/3 cups water, separated
1/4 cup miso
1/2 cup tahini
2 Tbs lemon juice (or white wine, or both)
1/4 C cornstarch
salt and pepper to taste
porcini powder (optional)
Method:
1. Combine 2 two cups of water, miso, tahini and lemon juice in a saucepan
2. Heat on high
3. In a little cup or bowl, mix cornstarch and water.
4. When mixture is boiling, add cornstarch while whisking. I find that recipes often underestimate the amount of cornstarch needed. I use a lot of cornstarch generally when cornstarch is required.
5. Whisk and heat until it's very thick.
I put it in a bowl with some other things (grilled zucchini, market mushrooms, spinach, mashed potatoes). The sauce is really the best part of what's happening here.

6. Flavour to taste. You can add basically anything you want. I put porcini powder, but also chili flakes would be good, or truffle oil, or basil. Go wild!
