DR. WEIL'S MISO SOUP



Dr. Weil's Miso Soup image

Miso soup is the Japanese version of chicken soup - a combination soul food and comfort food. It is traditionally eaten at breakfast in Japan as a daily staple. Miso is a paste made from fermented soybeans, and is full of antioxidants like vitamin E, as well as protective fatty acids. It's healthful and delicious, and the Japanese say that the linoleic acid in miso promotes soft skin. The soybeans miso is made from also contain isoflavones and other elements that provide protection against some forms of cancer. To preserve these properties, miso should not be boiled. Add it to a soup after it has been removed from direct heat.

JAPANESE MISO SOUP



Japanese Miso Soup image

This is a light but filling soup that's easy to make and tasty. Note: This is a salty soup that can be made with white miso, but if you mix red and white, the flavor is superb. Some cooks drop an egg into the soup as it cooks, and/or add mushrooms or slices of white radish or potato. It can be served by itself or poured over a bowl of rice to make a gruel, accompanying a dish of fish and yellow Japanese pickles called takuan.

MISO SOUP



Miso Soup image

Dashi is a basic stock used in Japanese cooking which is made by boiling dried kelp (seaweed) and dried bonito (fish). Instant dashi granules are sold in conveniently-sized jars or packets and vary in strength. Add more dashi to your soup if you want a stronger stock. You can use yellow, white or red miso paste for this soup. Yellow miso is sweet and creamy, red miso is stronger and saltier.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality miso. Look for organic miso made from soybeans, rice, and barley. Avoid miso that contains wheat or other fillers.
  • Use dashi broth for a flavorful soup. Dashi is a Japanese soup stock made from kelp and bonito flakes. It adds a rich, savory flavor to miso soup.
  • Add your favorite vegetables. Some popular choices include tofu, wakame seaweed, green onions, and carrots.
  • Don't boil the miso. Boiling the miso will kill the beneficial bacteria and enzymes. Add it to the soup after the soup has cooled slightly.
  • Serve miso soup with rice or noodles. Miso soup is a great way to start a meal or as a light lunch or dinner.

Conclusion:

Miso soup is a delicious and healthy Japanese soup that is easy to make at home. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and nutritious soup that is perfect for any occasion. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give miso soup a try!
