Ingredients

• 1 stick butter, at room temp
• 1/4 cup white (Shiro) miso
• 2 tbsp. finely minced chives
• 3 garlic cloves, finely minced
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• Generous pinch of cayenne pepper

Directions

1. In a medium bowl, mash together the butter, miso, chives, garlic, black pepper and cayenne.

2. You can put the miso butter in a bowl and go to town on it. Or, place a piece of plastic wrap over a piece of foil and spread the mixture into a 6×2-inch rectangle on the plastic. Fold the foil over the mixture and roll the foil and plastic over the mixture into a loose log. Using the ends to twist, twist the foil into handles and then keep twisting until the butter is compacted into a 4-inch-long log. Chill until ready to use.

3. When ready to serve, just open the log and slice off as many butter discs as you like.
