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?

  1. 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)
