Reviews
This soup was just as easy as instant but bursting with flavor! I added mushrooms and for the dashi I used 1 tsp dried kelp and 1 tsp dulse granules. Thank you for a wonderful miso soup recipe.
I made my own dashi (it was super easy) and used this recipe for proportions of other ingredients. My miso soup loving child wanted seaweed in it but said it tasted really good. We used red miso paste.
Delicious recipe! Simple and only thing I did differently is added seaweed.
Adding Kombu makes a world of difference
I have been eating this for about 6 days straight! Needless to say I am hooked. Have tried different addition every day. I have a garden running over with greens so this has been awesome and I am on a weight loss journey too. Don’t skip the Dashi it is a game changer. I love cayenne and Sriracha with it too. I prefer the firm tofu!!! Japanese soup spoons are in the mail…LOL! Thank you.
Very authentic tasting. Only modification was to add some sliced mushrooms.
This is OK, but a serving probably contains your entire daily sodium allowance. The dashi powder is full of salt (as is miso, but this IS miso soup, so…). As the author says, Japanese make dashi broth from basically three things: water, Kombu (seaweed), and dried bonito (fish) flakes, the latter ingredients are worst case available on Amazon. This makes a broth just like the restaurant (unless they are cheating with dashi powder) and no salt in the broth. It’s easy. Impress your friends and family with your authenticity.
Used red miso. Absolutely restaurant quality!! Super recipe and VERY easy!
great flavors and very nutritious!
Besides being very good for you, miso soup (without the tofu and onions) is excellent to sip on through the day when on a clear liquid diet, such as the day before or after a medical procedure, such as a colonoscopy. Delicious, healthful, and satisfying
Made it…and may sound silly but it was SOOOOO GOOD and I feel super happy I can make my own miso now!!! (I’ve been paying a lot of restaurants for it…thinking it was difficult and expensive to make! ) yay!!!
It was a big hit. My family has a favorite sushi place that we frequent very regularly. The kids said it tasted just like theirs
I substituted baby portabellas for tofu. Quite nice.
This is a great recipe. I used chicken stock instead of water.
It turned out well, but I agree with the other reviews as it desperately needed firmer tofu.
Perfect! Made exactly as-is and added some sugar snap peas, carrots, and extra green onions. The dashi is very important! I had to order from Amazon and made it once before it had arrived. The second attempt was much more flavorful.
This is delicious and just as good as any restaurant. Best of all, SO EASY
I am sure it will take time to get the richest broth but for a first time, it tasted like miso soup
Had to order Dashi and Miso on line, but once received it, it was so easy to make. The flavor is exactly what I know Miso Soup to taste like. Awesome.
Easy to make and tasty. Made it for my husband when he wasn’t feeling well. Wanted to give him something else instead of the chicken noodle soup he’s been drinking. The tofu is a good source of protein to fill his stomach.
This recipe is very bland, I doubled the recipe and used low sodium miso….and tripled it….it needs dried seaweed which I added. I usually add the green onion right before serving…..Personally, I really didn’t like the low sodium tan miso….I will get the red miso next time.
