EASY SPICY MISO NOODLES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together all the ingredients for the sauce until smooth and well-incorporated. Taste the sauce and feel free to adjust to your taste. You can also add in more of the vinegar, soy, or chili garlic sauce later on after mixing in the noodles.
• Heat a small pot with water over high heat. Once boiling, add in the dry noodles. Cook according to package instructions or until chewy or al dente. If blanching some vegetables, you can cook them before the noodles and then just set them aside.
• Remove the noodles from the water and then immediately transfer to the large bowl with the sauce. Mix the noodles with the sauce until these are well coated.
• Taste the noodles and feel free to season with more vinegar, soy, or chili garlic sauce, if you'd like.
• Add in the cucumber, cilantro, and sautéed mushrooms (if using), and other vegetables (if using).
• Mix everything together and enjoy! If you'd like to loosen the noodles a bit, you can add 1 to 2 tbsp of the water from the pot to thin out the sauce of the noodles.

MISO SALMON (& MORE MISO RECIPES!)

Steps:

• Let salmon rest at room temperature for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the miso glaze: Whisk the miso, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, Sriracha and kosher salt together in a small bowl until smooth (the miso may have a few lumps depending on its texture, which is okay).
• Preheat the broiler to high. Place a large sheet of aluminum foil on a baking sheet and brush it with olive oil. Pat each piece of salmon dry and place it on the foil skin side down. Brush salmon liberally with the glaze (1 to 2 tablespoons).
• Broil about 4 to 5 minutes for very thin salmon or 7 to 10 minutes for 1-inch thick salmon, until just tender and pink at the center (the internal temperature should be between 125 to 130F in the center). Brush with more of the glaze and serve.
