Homemade Miso Soup With Tofu Recipes

15-MINUTE MISO SOUP WITH GREENS AND TOFU

Steps:

• Place vegetable broth in a medium sauce pan and bring to a low simmer.
• In the meantime, place miso (starting with lesser end of range) into a small bowl, add a little hot water and whisk until smooth. This will ensure it doesn't clump when added to the soup later. Set aside.
• To the broth add chard (or other greens of choice), green onion, and tofu (if using silken, add at the end of cooking) and cook for 5 minutes. Then add nori and stir. Remove from heat, add miso mixture, and stir to combine.
• Taste and add more miso or a pinch of sea salt if desired. Serve warm. Best when fresh.

HOW TO MAKE MISO SOUP WITH TOFU

Steps:

• In a medium sauce pan, bring niban dashi (or water) to a simmer.
• Add in the wakame and tofu. Cook until tofu is heated through (5 minutes).
• Turn off the heat and stir in miso paste. Use chopsticks or a fork to break apart.
• Serve once miso paste has dissolved.
• Top with freshly chopped green onion.

MISO SOUP WITH TOFU AND SEAWEED

Steps:

• For the dashi stock: Combine the cold water and kombu in a medium pot. Place the pot over medium heat; as the water comes to a simmer, you'll see tiny bubbles start to form on the bottom of the pot. Do not let the water come to a boil; it should remain at a low simmer. Remove the kombu.
• Once the water starts to simmer gently, sprinkle in the bonito flakes. Let the flakes steep without stirring for 1 to 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and strain the mixture through a cheesecloth-lined sieve into another medium pot. You should have about 4 cups of dashi stock.
• For the miso soup: To reconstitute the wakame seaweed, place 1 cup hot water in a medium bowl and sprinkle in the wakame; let it soak for about 2 minutes. Rinse the wakame under cold water, squeeze out the water with your hands and then chop the wakame.
• Heat the dashi stock over medium-low heat until just under a simmer. Add the wakame and allow to cook and intermingle for about 5 minutes.
• Submerge a small sieve into the saucepan until the rim is just above the stock. Add 1/4 cup of the miso to the sieve and use a wooden spoon to work the miso through the sieve into the soup; this will prevent lumps from forming. Stir well and taste the soup -- if it's not salty enough, add additional miso.
• Add the tofu and scallions and let them cook in the broth just until warmed through, about 1 minute.

• Pour the miso mixture back into the hot water and add the tofu and carrot.
• Stir once or twice and let sit for a minute, just long enough to heat the tofu through.
• Add the scallion and serve.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, bring stock and the water to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, and add carrots. Cook until carrots are crisp-tender, about 2 minutes.
• Add spinach and tofu, and stir to combine. Continue cooking just until spinach is wilted and tofu is heated through, about 1 minute more.
• Meanwhile, place miso in a small bowl, and stir in 1/4 cup cooking liquid until miso is dissolved. Add mixture to saucepan, stirring to combine. Do not let soup boil once miso has been added.
• Remove from heat. Ladle soup into four serving bowls. Sprinkle each with scallions. Serve immediately.
