It is used extensively in Japanese cuisine to thicken and season dishes. The lighter miso is used in delicate soups, sauces, and marinades, while the darker version is used in heartier dishes. It is available in Asian markets as well as most natural foods stores. *PRESSED TOFU (see recipe) Recipe from Weight Watchers Versatile Vegetarian (C) From Weight Watchers Light and Tasty Deluxe (C) 1997 The Learning Company, Inc. Recipes Weight Watchers International, Inc., owner of the registered trademark. Notes: This is a real home-style Japanese stew. Daikon, also called Japanese white radish, has the sharp taste and crisp texture of radish, but it can grow to be more than one foot long. Look for it at Asian markets. Mirin is a sweet rice wine common in Japanese kitchens; if it's unavailable, substitute sweet sherry.
