Grilled beets with Miso butter

Miso is a traditional Japanese pasta, which is primarily made from fermented soybeans and is packed with vitamins, proteins and minerals. Miso adds umami flavor and is available in different varieties, but the longer the miso has fermented, the stronger the umami taste.

If you do not like beets, try the miso butter with baked celery or other roots instead.
