AVOCADO SASHIMI WITH MISO DRESSING

INGREDIENTS

Serves 2


1 medium ripe Hass avocado, halved, pitted, and peeled

1 medium lemon

1 teaspoon white or yellow miso paste

1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger

1 teaspoon light soy sauce

1 teaspoon granulated sugar

1 teaspoon sesame oil

Wasabi paste, for garnish

Pickled ginger, for garnish

1. Place the avocado halves cut-side down on a board; score them at 1/8" intervals, leaving the stem end connected to hold them together. Squeeze the lemon over the scored avocados to prevent browning. Fan the avocados onto two small plates.

2. In a small bowl, whisk together the miso paste, ginger, soy sauce, sugar, and sesame oil until the sugar is dissolved. Spoon some of the dressing over the avocados. Serve garnished with wasabi and pickled ginger.
