Miso Butter Broccolini

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, sauté in a pan over medium heat until warmed through, or microwave in short intervals to prevent overcooking.

We have used white (shiro) miso in this recipe, as it is slightly sweeter and less intense. However, feel free to use whatever type of miso you have on hand—yellow (shinshu) or red (aka) miso will have a stronger, saltier flavour profile, so make sure you taste before adding extra seasoning.

Yes, you can substitute regular broccoli for broccolini. Simply cut the broccoli into smaller florets to ensure even cooking. The texture and taste will be slightly different but still delicious. You could also use green beans or snow peas if you have them on hand.

Fresh ginger is recommended for this recipe as it provides a more vibrant flavor. However, if you don't have fresh ginger, you can use ground ginger as a substitute. Use 1/4 teaspoon of ground ginger for every tablespoon of fresh ginger. You can also use thinly sliced garlic instead of fresh ginger, just be careful not to burn it in the pan.
