Let’s make it
As you may have guessed, that miraculous soup is miso soup.
At my house, I am on miso soup duty.
Whether it’s rice or bread, children eat miso soup before going to school every day.
material
- Dashi (packs, granules, etc.)
- Miso (if it contains dashi, no dashi is needed)
- Vegetables and seaweed
- water
How to make the basics
- cut the vegetables
- put water in a pot
- Add the dashi pack and heat it.
- add vegetables
- Once the vegetables are cooked, turn off the heat and stir in the miso.
- taste
combination of ingredients
At my house, we make miso soup with a lot of ingredients: main vegetables + sub-ingredients + mushrooms + protein + toppings.
I eat homemade miso 6 days out of the week, and the rest of the week I eat red miso or salt.
You can use whatever vegetables you have in the refrigerator which is also a good thing.
| main vegetables | Sub ingredients | mushroom | protein | seasoning | topping |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cabbage Radish Chinese cabbage Potato Eggplant | Bean sprouts Onions Komatsuna Burdock Seaweed Age(fried-tofu) | Enoki Nameko Shimeji mushroom Shiitake mushroom | Tofu Egg Fu Pork Chicken | Homemade miso Red miso Salt | Green onion Mitsuba |
Presence of sub-ingredients
The line between main vegetables and sub-ingredients is vague. Boundaries aren’t that important.
Sub-ingredients can easily become the main ingredient, but even in small amounts, they can make their presence felt in terms of taste, aroma, color, and texture.
Bean sprouts have a surprising presence.
Bean sprouts are also used in small amounts, but they make their presence felt, adding not only a crunchy texture but also a broader flavor to the overall flavor of the miso soup.
Instead of using up the whole bag for stir-frying vegetables, it’s also a good idea to save a little bit of the miso soup for the next morning!
From the mushroom team, a small amount of nameko will be useful.
Nameko mushrooms tend to be the main ingredient in “nameko soup,” but when added in small amounts as part of a rich miso soup, it is a recommended ingredient that accentuates the texture, color, and taste.
Over 10,000 combinations!
If you add the option of “not entering” for each,there are a whopping 10,080 combinations!
In reality, I sometimes add two types of sub-ingredients or mushrooms, so there may be more combinations.
Fish, shellfish, and crab rarely appear in my household, so I didn’t include them on the list.
There are many kinds of dashi packs, and I use iriko dashi for easy ones, and sometimes I make dashi using kelp and bonito.
The combinations are truly countless!
At the supermarket, there are more varieties of soup stock, so there are many options and it is convenient to use.

Intestinal menu that can be followed every day
Vegetables added to miso soup are cooked and easily digested and absorbed, and the volume is small, making it an excellent way to consume vegetables that are often lacking in the morning.
Miso contains types of beneficial bacteria, lactic acid bacteria, koji mold, and yeast bacteria that regulate the intestines.
Dietary fiber is the food that activates the good bacteria in your intestines. It is also found in large amounts in root vegetables, wakame seaweed, and other ingredients.
