Ponzu Miso Cream (~20 Cal / 2 Tbsp)

·184 words·1 min

Pale, citrusy, full umami. The dual-citrus hit of lemon and lime against the miso and dashi creates a ponzu-style cream that works on everything from turkey to tilapia. Squeeze-bottle consistency out of the blender.

Why these ingredients
White miso provides probiotics, manganese, and umami depth. Kombu dashi adds iodine, glutamates, and trace minerals at near-zero calories. Dulse flakes replace salt with iodine, potassium, and iron.
