  • Zest the lemon finely and extract its juice.
  • Toast the black sesame seeds in a dry pan over medium heat until fragrant. Set aside to cool.

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the softened butter and miso. Use a spoon or spatula to blend them until smooth and fully incorporated.
    • Add Flavour Elements:
  • Stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice, toasted black sesame seeds, and sesame oil. Mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the ingredients.
    • Adjust and Taste:
  • Taste the mixture and adjust the balance if needed (e.g., a bit more lemon juice for acidity or miso for umami).
    • Shape the Butter:
  • Transfer the butter mixture onto a sheet of parchment paper or plastic wrap.
  • Roll it into a log shape or press it into a mold for a specific form.
  • Wrap it tightly and refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours to firm up.
    • Serve and Store:
  • Slice the butter as needed to use on bread, grilled meats, vegetables, or as a finishing touch for dishes.
