Metric:
800ml Boiling Water
200g Silken Tofu
( cubed )
4 Asparagus Spears
( or spring onions )
30gr White or Red Miso
Paste
20gr Instant Dashi
( Japanese stock )
15ml Mirin
( sweet rice wine )
15ml Soy Sauce
TRADITIONAL JAPANESE RECIPE: Miso soup is deliciously savoury and comforting. With a good quality stock, this dish takes only a few minutes. While the tofu was draining, I roasted some mushrooms! Enoki and beech mushrooms. I recommend finding the closest Asian market near you and going there to buy these mushrooms. At Whole Foods and other fancy grocery stores, these mushrooms run about $6 for a bundle. At the Asian market, they were $1. Crazy price difference!
