Recipe

Miso Soup

Miso soup is a staple in the healthy Japanese diet—it’s commonly eaten for breakfast or lunch, together with seasonal vegetables. Do not bring the soup to a boil once the miso has been added. Leave it at a simmer, or the heat will alter its taste and reduce the health benefits.

Times

  • Prep Time : 5 min
  • Cook Time : 10 min
  • Ready Time : 15 min

Servings

4

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely grated, or 2 cubes frozen garlic, such as Gefen Fresh Crushed Garlic
  • 2 teaspoons finely grated fresh ginger or ⅔ teaspoon dried
  • 4 tablespoons white miso paste
  • 2 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
  • 1 pound firm tofu, drained and diced
  • 6 scallions, white and light green parts only, thinly sliced

Directions

Heat oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add garlic and ginger, and sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add miso paste, vinegar, and 6 cups water; whisk until combined.
