How To Make Miso Soup From Scratch Food

MISO SOUP- HOW TO MAKE WITH ONLY 6 INGREDIENTS (EASY)

Steps:

• Clean the kombu with a damp cloth.
• Place it in a pot of water and soak it for at least three hours (better overnight) to extract its flavor.
• After soaking, bring the water temperature up to nearly boil, and remove the kombu immediately.
• Heat the dashi to barely below boiling point. Add the katsuobushi.
• Let the katsuobushi steep for 5 minutes at the sub-boiling point.
• Strain through a cheesecloth or kitchen tissue to remove all the katsuobushi.
• Measure 500ml (2 cups) of dashi. Bring it to a boil.
• Turn off the heat.
• Put the miso paste in the miso strainer, lower the strainer into the dashi and gently stir until it dissolves.
• Sprinkle some wakame in cold water to let it re-hydrate for five to ten minutes until it expands.
• Pass through a strainer and gently squeeze the wakame to remove the excess water.
• Add the wakame to the dashi.
• Add the tofu cube to the dashi.
• Sprinkle some cut scallion into the miso soup right before serving.

HOMEMADE MISO SOUP WITH TOFU

Steps:

• Gather all the ingredients.
• Cut the green onion into thin rounds.

MISO SOUP

Steps:

• In a saucepan heat the dashi and whisk in the miso pastes. Bring to a simmer and add the tofu, scallions, and mirin, if using. Remove from the heat and serve immediately.
• In a saucepan, combine the water and kombu. Bring to a simmer, uncovered, over medium heat. Remove the kombu and discard. Bring the liquid to a boil, add the bonito flakes and immediately remove the pan from the heat. Allow the dashi to sit undisturbed for 2 minutes. Strain through a fine mesh strainer into a medium bowl. Discard the bonito flakes. Use immediately or store, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

MISO SOUP

Steps:

• Put the wakame in a small bowl and cover with cold water, then leave it for 5 mins until the leaves have fully expanded.
• Make the dashi (see tip below) or heat until it reaches a rolling boil. Add the tofu and cook for 1 min before adding the seaweed.
• Reduce the heat. Put both types of miso in a ladle or strainer and dip it into the pot. Slowly loosen up the miso with a spoon inside the ladle or strainer; the paste will slowly melt into the dashi. Once all the miso is dissolved into the soup, turn off the heat immediately. Sprinkle with chopped spring onions to add colour and fragrance.
