If you never tried Homemade Miso Butter, you are missing out! Miso Butter makes a perfect condiment to serve with protein, potatoes, pasta, and even as a marinade. Miso paste is salty and packed with umami flavors; a little bit goes a long way. Not only is Miso Paste delicious, but it is also SUPER healthy. Miso Paste is a fermented ingredient that is good for your guts; it is also filled with rich minerals and has tons of antioxidants. I recommend using either white miso paste or dashi miso paste. However, any will work. You can find Miso Paste at your local supermarket’s refrigerated section, typically near the tofu and kimchi section. 

The secret to making fluffy and crispy potatoes is to always boil than broil. Make sure ALWAYS to salt the water to season the potatoes while you are cooking them. I like my potatoes to be fluffy and soft with crispy edges; however, if you prefer your potatoes extra crispy, separate each potato in a larger tray before broiling them. 

Crispy Potatoes with Miso Butter makes a perfect side dish or appetizer. I love to pair it with baked salmon, pan-seared chicken, or slow-cooked beef. Make sure to make extra as these Crispy Potatoes are super addicting and will be gone in no time. If you like spice, SECRET TIP drizzle the potatoes with Homemade Chili Oil once it’s out of the oven, and you will thank me later!
