Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line two rimmed baking sheets with
aluminum foil, and brush with oil.
Boil water for a cup of tea. Pour about 1/2 cup hot water over
the tea bag, cover and let steep for five minute. Mix up maple miso
glaze by adding miso, maple syrup and grape seed oil, then
gradually add the concentrated tea and mix until miso dissolves
(use 1/4- 1/2 cup of tea). Try to avoid making your mixture too
watery.
Lay squash pieces on baking sheets. Drizzle maple miso glaze
over each crescent (reserve half the mixture for the other side).
Roast about 5 minutes.
Remove baking sheets from oven. Using tongs, turn over pieces.
Drizzle once more with glaze mixture. Roast until tender, about 20
minutes.
