Miso Soup

Miso Soup

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups ichiban dashi - see sauces
  • 1/2 tsp red miso paste
  • A handful of spinach leaves
  • 2 spring onions, finely sliced

Instructions:

  • Warm the dashi in a pan but do not let it boil.
  • Ladle a little dashi into a bowl and whisk in the miso paste until smooth, then stir it back into the pan.
  • Add the spinach leaves and heat through gently for a minute until wilted.
  • Serve in bowls scattered with the spring onions.

Never boil the soup once the miso is in - it dulls the flavour.
