"Umami? More like you-mah-need these wings"
I think my cooking style changes depending on what season I am in my life. Currently I'm in a very East Asian fusion season, and I am loving it. The
blend of soy sauce, sriracha, ginger, garlic and honey has had my taste buds on cloud 9 lately.
My sister brought me some white Miso when she visited, and I've been sitting with it for a bit, trying to figure out what to make. I thought I'd
wing a recipe and see what I come up with, and here we are - hehe get
it...
What's great about this recipe is you don't have to make it with chicken wings; you can use other chicken pieces (like chicken fillets or legs), and you're good to go. I cut the
chicken fillets into large cubes, followed the recipe, and served it in a quinoa bowl.
I was a bit heavy-handed with the chilli flakes in the recipe. For a milder flavour, just skip the ingredient when marinating the chicken, as the sauce has sriracha and that brings some heat too.
If you cannot find white miso, you don't need a perfect miso substitute, just something that balances the saltiness, depth, and a little sweetness. Here is an alternative you could use: a mix of tahini or peanut butter, soy sauce and honey. This brings a creamy, sticky, sweet and salty texture and flavour to the sauce with a nutty twist. Now, this is not an exact substitute; the flavour won't be the exact same if you used white miso, but it still tastes delicious.
