  2. Strain through a fine mesh strainer set over a mixing bowl and press on the solids with the back of the spoon to extract as much juice as possible.
  3. Transfer to a canning jar or other container with a lid and allow to cool to room temperature. Cover and transfer to the refrigerator. Use within 1 month.

Instructions
  1. Add all ingredients into your blender, starting with only 2 teaspoons of honey, and blend until fully combined, about 1 minute, stopping to scrap down the sides of the blender if necessary. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Transfer to an air-tight container and store in the refrigerator for 1 week or store in the freezer for up to 6 months.
Recipe Notes
  1. If you haven't used fresh turmeric before, I would recommend starting with half of the amount I recommend and then adding more little by little. The flavor can easily overpower the other ingredients so it is best to start small and add more to taste.
  2. I used white miso because it is mild but you could try red miso for a funkier flavor (this might be closer to the Korean soybean paste).
