TRADITIONAL JAPANESE RECIPE: In Japan, whether you are eating grilled eel on sticky rice from a lacquer box, a piece of blistering aubergine tempura hauled out of bubbling oil or chicken hearts cooked on skewers set over hot coals, you can almost guarantee that you will be offered a tiny lacquer bowl of miso soup. When there, it is an essential part of my breakfast, along with rice and salty, crunchy pickles. Made from crushed soy beans and rice or wheat, left to ferment and mature, miso's variations in colour, from creamy white to a deepest mahogany, will generally signify how salty it is. The white (shiro) miso, the least salty, is a good place for miso virgins to start.
