Miso Dressing Salad
….When making dressing with white miso, I peeled and finely chopped some ripe tomatoes, mixed them into the miso dressing, and chilled it in the refrigerator. Since I couldn’t get my favorite chamnamul, I made a salad with baby kale, lettuce, radish sprouts, and radishes, and enjoyed it as a refreshing lunch. Salad is always a meal that lifts your spirits. These days, there are so many different vegetables available that the choice of ingredients can make the flavor unique, providing endless variety and making meals more enjoyable. The miso dressing I chose today was mild and not too strong, and the freshness of the tomatoes complemented it well, making the dressing rich without being lacking. I recommend choosing lettuce as the main ingredient. I arranged each of my favorite vegetables beautifully on a plate, and gently added some miso dressing on the side. Doesn’t it look appetizing, making it taste even better? I also added a few edible flowers I planted recently, along with some thyme that just happened to bloom.
