Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In medium, heavy skillet, heat sesame oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and carrots. Cook, stirring occasionally, about 6 minutes, until soft on edges but not brown.

  2. Step 2

    In small bowl, cream miso with ¼ cup broth. Stir this mixture, remaining broth, orange zest and ginger into carrots and onions. Reduce heat, and simmer for 12 to 15 minutes, until liquid is reduced to a glaze and carrots are crisp-tender.

  3. Step 3

    Stir in roasted sesame oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Cold pressed sesame oil ? Does it really matter?

Cauliflower instead of carrot?
