This Shrimp with Miso Butter is a marriage made in heaven. The shrimp is tossed in a buttery umami bath. I always have miso paste in the refrigerator. It basically lasts forever.

2Turn your oven to Broil and move the rack to 8" below heating element. Use parchment paper or tin foil on the bottom of baking sheet. Add the shrimp and broil for 2 minutes each side or until cooked through. garnish with scallions.

Thanks for the tip about the shelf life of the Miso Paste, I bought some yesterday and was wondering how long it would last once opened.
love the flavour, this recipe looks delicious.
