Also the David Chang recipe for asparagus with miso butter is great.
There is also an excellent miso-seaweed pasta recipe on NYT cooking.
I also add a bit of miso into many dishes for an umami boost - like in risotto.
Do you have a good recipe for nasu dengaku you can share? I tried one recently and it was terrible (waaaay too much sugar).
Also, OP, miso is awesome for adding flavor/umami but keep in mind you won't get any of the benefits of it as a live, fermented food if you heat it and kill the bacteria off. If you develop a taste for it, try eating a very small spoonful raw because it's a probiotic powerhouse.
