Miso Soup?

Options
I am looking for a good Miso soup recipe. I have Googled a ton of them but thought I would check out what you guys think. I really like the kind I find in restaurants (white miso I believe) but have never made it for myself. Any suggestions and recipes would be a huge help :)

    Big Miso soup fan here too!

    Well it's easy once you have the ingredients, but it is fairly hard to get them in the first place:

    -vegetable stock - to make about 800ml of soup
    -2 tbsp white or red miso paste
    -1 tbsp mirin - rice wine
    -1 tbsp soy sauce
    -spring onions
    You can add tofu/fish and other veg too

    If there are Japanese sections in your supermarkets then look there for miso soup, over in the UK we have some good pre-made ones such as Clearspring Miso Soup sachets (30 cals)

    Hope that helps!

    I just got this recipe from a japanese restaurant yesterday. its really yummy. half chicken broth- half beef broth. green onions (tops only) and thinly sliced button mushrooms, and then they add french fried onions right before serving. super easy
    I plan on making it soon ( i will be using low sodium broth and adding tofu)

    enjoy

    I have made it before.. just experimenting in different ways.
    I use VEG or mushroom based broth.
    I use ****ake mushrooms and white ones.
    I use firm Tofu.
    And white miso.
    A little spinach and/or green onion added at the end.
    Miso is pretty salty to me so I don't add soy or any other sauce.

    if you have an asian store or section they have them in ready to mix with hot water packets... seaweed and such already dehydrated in the packet!

    The book 'CLEAN' has a GREAT Miso soup recipe that I have made several ways. Personally, I found a Barley Miso Soup is what really tickled my fancy. I'll try to see if I cant get the web address I used for you.
