Genmai Miso is made from fermented soybeans and brown rice yielding an antioxidant and living enzyme rich paste. Tahini, made from ground sesame seeds, is rich in calcium, iron and protein.

Ingredients: All of which are in stock in the co-op now!

1 heaped tablespoon genmai miso (other types will also work) 2 tablespoons sesame oil 1-2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar or lemon (to taste) 3 heaped tablespoons tahini 1tablespoon honey (or other sweetener)
