Mashed Sweet Potatoes with Miso Butter blend earthy sweetness with a gentle umami depth from white miso and a buttery finish.

1

Place the potatoes in a large pot of salted water over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Lower the heat; simmer until tender and easily pierced with a fork, about 15 minutes. Drain, then return the potatoes to the pot.
2

Add the warm half-and-half and butter, then mash with a potato masher or an electric mixer until creamy and smooth, adding more half-and-half if needed. Stir in the miso, garlic, soy sauce, and lemon juice until fully combined.

Garnish with chopped parsley or thyme, and serve right away.
