Japanese miso soup

Japanese miso soup

Overview

Miso soup is the most common soup among Japanese people. It is refreshing, warms the stomach and nourishes the body. It can be cooked with any vegetables and seafood. I used to make my own miso soup, and I was always confused: Why can't I get the flavor of the soup from a Japanese restaurant even though I bought miso and mixed it with various seasonings at home? After doing some homework, I found out that Japanese miso soup is not boiled with water, but with Japanese dashi stock (soup extracted from bonito, kombu and dried small fish). But just for a bowl of soup, the ingredients are a bit too complicated🙄...until I accidentally saw the introduction of Japanese food expert Yuuuma, it turns out that Japanese people usually solve the problem with cooking master! He immediately went out to find it and came back. Then, hehe, you can make miso soup at home that is as delicious as in a Japanese restaurant😋
