Homemade Miso Broth
Miso soup is something I crave on a regular basis. It’s a guilt-free bowl of comfort with a distinct salty soy flavor. I used to think the only “real” homemade miso soup recipe was to open a packet of dry miso soup and stir it into water. Then I learned… Cooking an authentic miso soup is not much more complicated than using dry packets. Yet the taste is something to experience! Rich and savory. Today I’m sharing an easy and delightful 5 Ingredient Miso Soup Recipe that can be made in just 5 minutes! With only 5 simple ingredients, and 5 minutes time (provided you have a high heat burner), you can make a fresh, robust soup that’s good enough to serve to dinner guests. You can even make this dish as a completely vegan miso soup!
What You Need for 5 Ingredient Miso Soup
Dashi – a common Asian soup broth made with mushrooms, dried fish, and seaweed. It can be tricky to find in certain parts of the country (or world). If you can’t find dashi, or prefer to make a vegan miso soup version, use mushroom broth instead. It resembles the flavor of dashi, without the dried fish. White Miso Paste – can be found in the refrigerated section of the produce department. It has a strong soy flavor with a slight floral essence. It’s fabulous for making sauces, glazes, and of course a killer miso soup recipe. Tofu – can also be found in the refrigerated section of the produce department. Buy a “firm” or “extra firm” variety rather than silken tofu so it holds together when cut. Nori Sheets – thin pieces of dried seaweed, often used for rolling sushi. They can be found in the international section of most major grocery chains. If you are using mushroom broth instead of dashi, don’t skip the nori sheets. They really lift the flavor! Scallions – aka green onions – they really round out a warm bowl of miso soup. You can stir them into the pot at the end, or use them as a garnish.
