Sugar always makes dishes very tasty doesn’t it?
I think representative Japanese seasonings such as soy sauce and miso matches so well with sugar (and mirin too).
Sweet but at the same time salty is one of the best feeling of tasting Japanese food.
SIMMERED CHICKEN & DAIKON WITH MISO is easy and absolutely scrumptious recipe that you can taste great miso flavor.
Properly cooked daikon and green onion turn so soft and absorb sweet miso well.
Please enjoy this great miso dish!
