How to make Easy Miso soup

Miso soup is a traditional Japanese soup made by combining miso paste with dashi broth and various toppings such as tofu and vegetables. In Japan, the concept of “one soup, one dish” (one side dish and one soup, excluding the staple food) is an important element in composing a meal. Miso soup is as essential to Japanese meals as rice, forming a core part of the meal.

Many Japanese people still drink miso soup at least once a day. While tofu and wakame (seaweed) are commonly used ingredients, you can use virtually any ingredient to make miso soup.

Here, I will introduce a miso soup recipe using vegetables that are easily available, even if you are overseas.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 potato
  • 1/2 onion
  • 1 1/2 tbsp miso
  • Green onion to taste
  • 1 tsp dashi
