Made with fermented soybean paste called miso, miso soup is healthy, warming, and wonderful! I’ve been hooked on this simple soup for quite awhile, only having it in Japanese restaurants. But recently I tried making it myself and was surprised at how quick and easy it is. I just couldn’t wait to share it with you.
Miso, the fermented soybean paste, can be found in specialty stores, Asian food markets, and some larger grocery stores. Try and get one that advertises no artificial additives or preservatives, no MSG, and no GMO soybeans. I found the brand Miko (by Miyasaka Brewery) at a Japanese specialty store, and we all liked it.
Ingredients:
12 cups water
12 Tbs. miso
2 Tbs. soy sauce
3 oz. firm tofu, cut in cubes about 1/2″ thick
10 shiitake mushrooms, sliced
3 baby bok choy, sliced or torn
6 scallions, sliced
Heat water to a boil; lower heat and add miso, stirring until it’s completely dissolved. Add soy sauce, tofu, mushrooms, and scallions. Heat through. At end, throw in bok choy and stir, heating through until bok choy is just softened. Turn off heat and serve.
this looks delish! thanks for sharing!!
when ever we eat japanese i love the soup that starts the meal (that my husband referes to as dishwater.)
is this that same soup? i always eat mine and his too!
What a coincidence that I made Miso soup tonight. It’s really good on a cold day. I think the miso really warms you up, especially if you add a little ginger. I make a baked tofu with a miso sauce that is soooo good. It’s a little like General Tso’s sauce.

Love the miso soup — it is health-giving, light and subtle in flavor. Thanks for sharing.
Oh this seems healthy and great for guests with Asian tastes! I love hot and sour soup so this sounds similar…thanks!

I recently was given a recipe that I changed a little to make it more Tom friendly, but this is a great recipe. I just remove the tofu from any recipe first. I love mushrooms.
