A very basic, endlessly customizable miso sauce, tossed with root vegetables, roasted until golden. Use whatever root vegetables you have handy -- almost anything works. On the miso paste: yellow miso -- the medium of misos -- would be great here. But I've used darker -- red -- miso here and liked it. If you want a milder flavor, use white. (Taste the mixture before you dress the roots -- if you want more miso flavor, add another tablespoon.)
