Notes

A simple and safe way to peel ginger is to use the back of a spoon to scrape off the skin.
Grape seed oil is a good choice because it has a high smoke point and it is flavorless.
Tamari is a gluten free substitute for soy sauce.
If you like, the sauce can be blended so that there are no chunks of ginger or garlic.
This recipe yields 1 cup of miso ginger sauce.
