Grilled Winter Veggies with Miso Dipping Sauce:
You’re not a true grill master until you’ve learned the ropes of the vegetable. Grilled vegetables on their own, or alongside a piece of juicy protein, make any meal more gourmet, diverse, and nutritious. In this recipe, the vegetables are paired with a flavorful miso dipping sauce which, quite frankly, is so good you’ll find yourself dipping much more than vegetables into it.
Note: If you don’t have mirin (a Japanese sweet rice wine) you can whip up a similar substitution with ingredients you probably already have in your pantry: Combine 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon white wine, and 1 teaspoon of honey.
