GRILLED ASPARAGUS AND SWEET POTATO MISO SOUP



Grilled Asparagus and Sweet Potato Miso Soup image

Although you can use American sweet potato, it is best with Japanese sweet potato if you can find it. Besides asparagus and sweet potato, you can certainly add slices of kabocha and green beans as well. This is a very basic miso soup and you can add other ingredients as well. This makes small 4 servings ie what I call Japanese serving size, less than 1 cup per person.

ROASTED SWEET POTATO AND MISO SOUP WITH COLLARD GREEN FURIKAKE



Roasted Sweet Potato and Miso Soup with Collard Green Furikake image

Sweet potatoes are a must-have on my menus. This delicious root vegetable is rich in flavor and nutrients as well as cultural significance. Sweet potatoes were often sold by street vendors in Harlem, and these piping-hot nuggets on a wintry New York day were a reminder of home for the many Southerners who migrated north after the Civil War. For this miso-inspired take on sweet potatoes, I make a version of furikake, a popular Japanese seasoning that's often sprinkled over rice or fish. In place of seaweed I like to use different seasonal leafy greens, like collard greens, to add a new dimension to it. Collard furikake makes a beautiful garnish for this golden sweet potato soup enriched with coconut milk.

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

8 collard leaves, stems removed, leaves cut into 1-inch squares
Avocado oil
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 large shallot, finely diced
2 teaspoons minced peeled fresh ginger
1/2 cup benne (sesame) seeds
1 1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
4 medium sweet potatoes, scrubbed and rinsed
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup avocado oil
2 medium carrots, peeled and chopped
1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
1/4 cup minced garlic
1/4 cup minced peeled fresh ginger
Sea salt
2 tablespoons coconut vinegar
2 tablespoons yellow miso
One 13.5-ounce can full-fat coconut milk
4 cups vegetable broth
Ground white pepper

Steps:

  • For the collard green furikake (can be made a day ahead): Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Rinse the collard greens and thoroughly dry them in a salad spinner or by patting them with a paper towel. Toss the greens with 1 1/2 teaspoons avocado oil and the salt. Lay them in a single layer on the prepared sheet pan. Bake until lightly browned and crispy, 15 to 18 minutes. Cool the collards on the sheet pan.
  • Heat 1/4 cup avocado oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add shallot and ginger and cook until they begin to brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the fried shallot and ginger with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel to drain.
  • Put the benne seeds in a medium skillet and toast over low heat, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Combine the toasted benne seeds, red pepper flakes and fried shallots and ginger in a small bowl. Gently crumble the crispy collard greens into the mixture. When cool, you can store the collard green furikake in an airtight container until ready to use.
  • For the sweet potato soup: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Gently poke the sweet potatoes all over with a fork. Bake on the prepared sheet pan until the juices on the pan begin to bubble and the sweet potatoes are soft, 40 to 50 minutes.
  • Combine the butter and avocado oil in a large pot over medium-low heat. When the butter melts, add the carrots, onions, garlic and ginger and cook until the onions become translucent, 6 to 10 minutes. Season with salt. Add the vinegar and miso to the pot and cook for 3 minutes.
  • Remove the skins from the sweet potatoes. Place the flesh in a large bowl and mash lightly. Add the mashed potatoes to the pot. Stir in the coconut milk and broth. Simmer over medium-high heat for 10 minutes.
  • Blend the soup until smooth in a high-speed blender or with a hand-held immersion blender. Season to taste with salt and white pepper. Serve hot, garnished with the collard green furikake. Enjoy!

PAN-GRIDDLED SWEET POTATOES WITH MISO-GINGER SAUCE



Pan-Griddled Sweet Potatoes With Miso-Ginger Sauce image

Think of this miso-ginger sauce as a universal sauce, because it's so good on so many things: tofu, tempeh, winter squash and napa cabbage salads, for starters. This recipe, adapted from "In My Kitchen," by the vegetarian cookbook author Deborah Madison, spoons the dressing over sweet potatoes, and suggests serving them with spicy Asian greens or stir-fried bok choy, and maybe soba noodles or brown or black rice. Not surprisingly, the sauce is good on them, too.

Categories     dinner, lunch, vegetables, side dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 sweet potatoes (about 6 ounces each), scrubbed
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 (1-inch) knob of fresh ginger, peeled and grated
A few pinches of sugar or 2 teaspoons mirin
1 heaping tablespoon white miso
1 tablespoon unseasoned rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon light sesame oil or other neutral oil, plus more for the pan
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
2 teaspoons toasted black sesame seeds, for garnish

Steps:

  • Add about an inch of water to a stovetop steamer or a pot fitted with a steaming basket. Add sweet potatoes and steam until tender, 30 to 40 minutes, depending on their size.
  • While sweet potatoes are cooking, make the sauce: pound garlic and ginger in a mortar until very smooth and then stir in the sugar, miso, vinegar, sesame oils and 1 tablespoon water.
  • Halve steamed sweet potatoes lengthwise and score the cut sides in a crisscross pattern with a small knife. Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add a swirl of light sesame oil (about 1 tablespoon), then add sweet potatoes in a single layer, cut side down, and cook for 3 minutes, or until their natural sugars caramelize and turn an appetizing golden brown. (Depending on the shape of your potatoes, you may have to work in batches.)
  • Arrange sweet potatoes on plates or a platter and spoon sauce over them. Garnish with sesame seeds and serve alone or with any accompaniment you like.

SOBA WITH GRILLED ASPARAGUS AND SEA SCALLOPS WITH SWEET MISO SAUCE



Soba with Grilled Asparagus and Sea Scallops with Sweet Miso Sauce image

During the summer you can grill the asparagus outdoors. The smoky flavor of a wood charcoal fire adds complexity to this substantial meal. While I call for green asparagus, try making the dish with a colorful array of asparagus-green, white, and purple. White miso, which is called _shiro-miso_ in Japanese can be found in health food stores. Smooth rather than grainy miso is preferable for this recipe.

Provided by Corinne Trang

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup sake
3 tablespoons mirin
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1/3 cup white miso
1 tablespoon finely grated ginger
1/4 cup vegetable oil
10 ounces dried soba noodles
36 medium asparagus spears, coarse woody ends snapped or cut off
18 sea scallops
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 walnut halves, lightly toasted and coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • In a bowl, whisk together the sugar, sake, mirin, and rice vinegar until the sugar is completely dissolved. Add the white miso, ginger, and 1 tablespoon of the oil and whisk until well combined. Set the miso glaze aside.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat and cook the noodles until tender yet firm, about 3 minutes. Drain, shock under cold running water, and drain again.
  • Heat a well-oiled grill pan over medium heat. Brush the asparagus and scallops with all or most of the remaining 3 tablespoons of oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Grill the asparagus first until just tender, 3 to 5 minutes total, rolling them about to heat them evenly all around. Divide and top each noodle serving with asparagus. Grill the scallops in the same pan until cooked through and crisp on each side, about 2 minutes per side. Divide the scallops among the servings of noodles, and spoon some miso glaze over each. Serve garnished with toasted walnuts.

Provided by Shawn McClain

Categories     Soup/Stew     Vegetarian     Dinner     Sweet Potato/Yam     Fall     Winter     Healthy     Bok Choy     Shallot     Boil     Self

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound sweet potatoes
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 shallot, chopped
1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 cups sliced bok choy
1 cup bean sprouts
1 cup edamame, shelled
12 wonton wrappers
3 tablespoons white miso, plus more to taste
2 scallions, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375°F. Prick holes in potatoes. Bake on a baking sheet until soft, turning once, about 1 hour. Cool, then peel and mash. Heat oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Cook garlic and shallot, stirring, until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add pepper flakes. Stir garlic mixture, salt and pepper into potatoes. Place bok choy, sprouts and edamame in a pot with 2 cups water and set aside. Lay 1 wonton wrapper in palm of hand. Drop a heaping tablespoon of potato mixture in the center and make a fist to gather edges. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling. Set dumplings on top of vegetables in pot. Bring to a boil. Cook, covered, until wrappers are translucent, 3 to 6 minutes. Divide veggies and dumplings among 4 bowls. Add 4 cups water to pot. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat. Add miso, stirring until it dissolves. Divide among bowls; top with scallions.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh asparagus and sweet potatoes.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can roast the asparagus and sweet potatoes in the oven at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes, or until tender.
  • You can use any type of miso paste you like, but a light or white miso paste will give the soup a more delicate flavor.
  • If you don't have wakame seaweed, you can use another type of seaweed, such as arame or hijiki.
  • Serve the soup immediately, garnished with green onions and sesame seeds.

Conclusion:

This grilled asparagus and sweet potato miso soup is a delicious and healthy way to warm up on a cold day. The asparagus and sweet potatoes are roasted to perfection, and the miso paste gives the soup a rich and flavorful broth. This soup is also a good source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
