The combination of high-quality matcha and white miso deliver a rich and unforgettable umami taste. This matcha-inspired recipe is a great spin on the classic Mediterranean style hummus. It's the perfect addition to include with your healthy snacks, and delivers a powerful punch of nutrients. The white miso and raw coconut vinegar encourage healthy intestinal flora, while the antioxidants from the matcha can help reduce cellular oxidative stress.
Give this creamy matcha miso hummus a try for your next gathering (or night in)! It takes less than 20 minutes to prepare and will keep in the fridge covered for up to 2 days.
Tip: We recommend using a high-powered food processor or blender for best results. Also, try to avoid miso pastes with unnecessary ingredients. A good quality white miso paste should include: organic soybeans, organic rice, sea salt and culture (koji).
