Miso Soup



[ts]
Join me in a brief Japanese interlude.

Heat some dashi in a pot, taking care not to let it boil. In a small bowl, add miso paste and a little bit of dashi and whisk to dissolve. Add to the heated dashi.

Add good things like soft tofu, green onions, and wakame (seaweed).



Aren't you glad you did this?

    Home-made miso is so good!!! So much better than the instant soup mixes. Perfect on a day like today (at least here in Boston where it's so cold)

    Mmm. The wonder of miso.
    Thanks for the calming interlude.

    This is great sick people food. But, it's also fabulous for well people. :)

    Nice looking miso soup! I have been enjoying some shiitake and spinach miso soup for breakfasts this week.
