Have you tried Miso?

Recently, I asked my Naturopathic doctor how I could get more protein in my diet, since I don't eat much meat and have problems digesting tofu and soy. He suggested I try Miso, which despite being made of soybeans is something that will be easier for my body to digest. I've had Miso soup many times, but wasn't aware that I could eat and cook with just plain old Miso. Apparently, it can be used in a number of dishes -- not just soup. It can be a base for stir-frys, in gravy, in desserts ... the list goes on and on. There are even Miso cookbooks.

Miso has a great reputation as a health food and has been attributed to lowering cancer rates, promoting healthy aging, reducing cholesterol levels and much more.

I'm interested to know if you have any great Miso recipes.
