Miso Soup with Dashi Powder

This recipe will teach you how to make one small bowl of miso soup. I wrote this recipe to show how little you need to create a simple miso soup, something I wish I had when I was first learning how to make it.

Ingredients
  

  • 250 ml Water
  • 1/4 tsp Ajinomoto Hon-Dashi stock granules
  • 1 tbsp Miso (1.5 if you prefer a stronger miso taste)

Instructions
 

  • Bring the water to a simmer then add in the dashi powder.
  • At this stage, you can add in whatever other ingredients you want.
  • Add the miso paste into a jug and add in 2 tbsp of the hot dashi, mix together until fully combined.
  • Kill the heat before adding in the Miso Paste. Cooking Miso at a high heat completely changes the taste.
  • Pour in the miso paste mixture.
  • Serve and Enjoy!

Notes

This recipe uses the Ajinomoto Hon-Dashi stock granules which can be purchased on Amazon. Different brands will require different water to stock ratios, please check the package instructions and adjust as needed.
