Tofu Miso Seaweed And Spinach Soup Food

15-MINUTE MISO SOUP WITH GREENS AND TOFU

Steps:

• Place vegetable broth in a medium sauce pan and bring to a low simmer.
• In the meantime, place miso (starting with lesser end of range) into a small bowl, add a little hot water and whisk until smooth. This will ensure it doesn't clump when added to the soup later. Set aside.
• To the broth add chard (or other greens of choice), green onion, and tofu (if using silken, add at the end of cooking) and cook for 5 minutes. Then add nori and stir. Remove from heat, add miso mixture, and stir to combine.
• Taste and add more miso or a pinch of sea salt if desired. Serve warm. Best when fresh.

MISO SOUP WITH TOFU RECIPE

Steps:

• In a medium soup pot, bring the vegetable broth to a boil, and then lower to simmer for 5 minutes.
• While the broth is simmering, combine hot water, one tablespoon at a time, to the miso paste in a small bowl and whisk until smooth until there are no lumps. Set aside.
• Add the green onions and shiitake mushrooms to the broth. Simmer another 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Slowly add in the miso paste mixture. Stir well until combined.
• Add in the nori strips and silken tofu cubes. Garnish with sliced green onions and serve while hot.

MISO SOUP WITH TOFU AND SEAWEED

Steps:

• For the dashi stock: Combine the cold water and kombu in a medium pot. Place the pot over medium heat; as the water comes to a simmer, you'll see tiny bubbles start to form on the bottom of the pot. Do not let the water come to a boil; it should remain at a low simmer. Remove the kombu.
• Once the water starts to simmer gently, sprinkle in the bonito flakes. Let the flakes steep without stirring for 1 to 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and strain the mixture through a cheesecloth-lined sieve into another medium pot. You should have about 4 cups of dashi stock.
• For the miso soup: To reconstitute the wakame seaweed, place 1 cup hot water in a medium bowl and sprinkle in the wakame; let it soak for about 2 minutes. Rinse the wakame under cold water, squeeze out the water with your hands and then chop the wakame.
• Heat the dashi stock over medium-low heat until just under a simmer. Add the wakame and allow to cook and intermingle for about 5 minutes.
• Submerge a small sieve into the saucepan until the rim is just above the stock. Add 1/4 cup of the miso to the sieve and use a wooden spoon to work the miso through the sieve into the soup; this will prevent lumps from forming. Stir well and taste the soup -- if it's not salty enough, add additional miso.
• Add the tofu and scallions and let them cook in the broth just until warmed through, about 1 minute.

MISO SOUP WITH TOFU AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat the dashi to a simmer in a saucepan. Add the mushrooms and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes. Soften the miso in a small bowl by mixing it with a few tablespoons of hot dashi. Pour the softened miso into the saucepan. Heat the soup, being careful not to boil, and add tofu. Pour into individual soup bowls and garnish with the green onions.
• Combine the water and kelp in a large pot. Bring the water to a boil, removing the kelp just before water boils since it emits a strong odor. If the fleshiest part of the kelp is still tough, return it to the water for a few more minutes, along with a little cold water. (Soft kelp means sufficient flavor has been extracted.) Remove the kelp and bring stock to a full boil.
• Add 1/4 cup cold water to bring the temperature down quickly and add the bonito flakes. Bring to a boil, and then immediately remove from the heat. (If bonito flakes boil too long, the stock becomes bitter.) Allow the flakes to settle to the bottom of the pan, then filter the stock through cheesecloth.
