Hi! This is Andrea from Cooking with a Wallflower, and I’m back this month to share with you a brand new recipe perfect for beginners in the kitchen.
It’s been a rough few weeks for all of us. And I know how difficult it is to stay indoors all the time. For me, the best way to keep busy is to get creative in the kitchen. So I’ve been cooking and baking and trying new things in the kitchen, which you might be doing too.
One of my favorite go to soups is this mushroom miso soup. It’s simple to make, delicious, and so comforting. Just a few ingredients and you can quickly put together this miso soup. Especially when you’re craving Japanese miso soup and can’t necessarily go out to get it. I’ll be honest, I’ve been
Generally, when making miso soup, you’ll want to use a seaweed called wakame, which is thicker and like kelp. But if you can’t find it, then regular seaweed would work too.
In a small bowl, soak wakame in water for several minutes to let the wakame rehydrate. Set aside for now.
In a medium sized pot, add dashi and water. Allow the soup to come to a boil. Then add the miso. Stir to dissolve the miso.
Next, add the white mushrooms . Once the mushrooms have softened, add the tofu and wakame and allow it to cook for a few minutes. Lastly, add the enoki mushrooms when almost ready to serve.
Serve the mushroom miso soup warm. Add chopped scallions if desired.
Enjoy!
