Miso soup is sooo easy and quick to make! all you really need is Japanese miso paste, dashi, and any veggies you want! ✿ Ingredients: • Dashi powder [Japanese seafood stock), usually you see "hon dashi" in western supermarkets] •Japanese miso paste [fyi: even if it says there is dashi in the paste, I still add dashi powder 🙂] •Any vegetables you'd like! I added: •Carrots [thinly sliced so they cook quickly] •The whites of spring onions [leeks are fine too] •Nameko [These are little sticky mushrooms that are super healthy and I like how they thicken up the soup naturally 🙂] •Tofu [I used kinu tofu today which is like silk or soft tofu but any tofu works!] •The green part of the spring onion [scallions would work fine too!] ✿ Directions: •Put water on the stove and add the dashi •Once it starts to heat I add the veggies (except the green onions) and tofu and let it boil for a few minutes, just 2-3 is usually plenty. •Turn off the heat and use a ladle or strainer to slowly stir in the miso and incorporate it into the soup. •VERY IMPORTANT: Don't boil the soup after adding the miso paste, it will change the flavor and you don't wanna overcook the veggies or they may fall apart. When reheating make sure not to boil and slowly heat it up. ✿ Comment below or DM me on my instagram with any questions :) ✿ Follow me on instagram for more things Japan: https://instagram.com/mara_travelsjapan?igshid=vai5u2lmz7d
