Time 1h12m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

½ cup dried shiitake mushrooms
8 mochi rice cakes
4 cups water
⅜ ounce dashi-no-moto (broth seasoning)
¼ pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into small pieces
1 dash soy sauce, or to taste
salt to taste
12 shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 cups coarsely chopped spinach (packed)
2 carrots, peeled and cut into matchstick-size pieces
1 (2-inch piece) daikon radish, peeled and sliced into rounds
¼ cup sliced bamboo shoots
1 (2-inch piece) kamaboko (fish paste cake), thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Place mushrooms in a bowl and cover with warm water; let soak, about 15 minutes. Drain and squeeze out water from mushrooms; slice.
  • Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler on high. Place mochi on a baking sheet.
  • Broil mochi, turning frequently, until inflated, crisp, and slightly browned, about 5 minutes. Cut into 1-inch strips.
  • Combine water and dashi-no-moto in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until dashi is dissolved, 2 to 3 minutes. Add chicken, soy sauce, and salt; simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 15 minutes.
  • Mix shrimp, mushrooms, spinach, carrots, daikon radish, and bamboo shoots into chicken mixture; simmer until vegetables are tender and shrimp is cooked through, about 10 minutes.
  • Divide mochi strips among 4 bowls and top with soup. Garnish soup with kamaboko slices.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I had some carrots, celery, and onions that were about to go bad, so I threw them in the soup and they turned out great.

I'm not a big fan of mochi, but I really enjoyed it in this soup. It added a nice chewy texture and helped to thicken the broth.

This soup is a great way to warm up on a cold winter day. The broth is rich and flavorful, and the vegetables are tender and delicious. I especially loved the addition of the yuzu, which gave the soup a bright and citrusy flavor.
