Homemade miso soup

A steamy bowl of miso soup.


Serves: 2
Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients
1/4 cup carrot, thinly sliced
1/4 cup fresh mushrooms, sliced into thin pieces
1 scallion, chopped
1/4 block tofu, cubed
1/4 cup snow peas
2 cups vegetable broth
1 tablespoon miso

Directions
Sliced vegetables ready to be added to soup stock.


Slice the vegetables and tofu and set aside. Add the vegetable stock to a soup pot and bring to a low boil. Add the vegetables (except scallions) and tofu to the vegetable stock. Lower the heat to medium and allow the soup to simmer for 10 minutes.

Put the fresh miso paste in a glass. Add a ladleful of hot broth. Whisk until the miso is entirely dissolved and then add the entire mixture back into the soup pot. Do not allow the soup to boil because the miso will become gritty. Stir in the scallions and serve warm.
