Preparation
Step 1
Combine the broth, mushrooms, ginger to taste, and oil in a small saucepan. Bring to a rapid simmer, then cover and simmer gently for 5 to 7 minutes.
Step 2
In a small container, combine the cornstarch with just enough water to dissolve. Whisk it into the saucepan and cook just until the gravy thickens. Remove from the heat.
Step 3
Combine the miso with 1/4 cup warm water in a small bowl and whisk until smooth. Stir into the gravy. Season with pepper to taste and serve at once, or cover and heat through just before serving.
