MISO SOUP WITH TOFU, SPINACH, AND CARROTS



Miso Soup with Tofu, Spinach, and Carrots image

In ancient China, the soybean was considered to be one of five sacred grains, along with barley, millet, rice, and wheat. Here, in the form of tofu, the soybean shines with a little help from miso, spinach, carrots, and scallions.

MISO SOUP WITH TOFU AND SEAWEED

Provided by Jet Tila

Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 cups (960 milliliters) cold water
One 6-by-4-inch (16-by-10-centimeter) piece kombu (dried kelp)
2 cups (240 grams) dried bonito flakes (hana katsuobushi)
1/2 cup (95 grams) dried wakame seaweed, rinsed
1/4 to 1/2 cup (60 to 120 milliliters) shiro miso
1 cup soft tofu in water, drained, cut into small cubes
2 to 3 scallions or Japanese scallions, finely chopped

Steps:

  • For the dashi stock: Combine the cold water and kombu in a medium pot. Place the pot over medium heat; as the water comes to a simmer, you'll see tiny bubbles start to form on the bottom of the pot. Do not let the water come to a boil; it should remain at a low simmer. Remove the kombu.
  • Once the water starts to simmer gently, sprinkle in the bonito flakes. Let the flakes steep without stirring for 1 to 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and strain the mixture through a cheesecloth-lined sieve into another medium pot. You should have about 4 cups of dashi stock.
  • For the miso soup: To reconstitute the wakame seaweed, place 1 cup hot water in a medium bowl and sprinkle in the wakame; let it soak for about 2 minutes. Rinse the wakame under cold water, squeeze out the water with your hands and then chop the wakame.
  • Heat the dashi stock over medium-low heat until just under a simmer. Add the wakame and allow to cook and intermingle for about 5 minutes.
  • Submerge a small sieve into the saucepan until the rim is just above the stock. Add 1/4 cup of the miso to the sieve and use a wooden spoon to work the miso through the sieve into the soup; this will prevent lumps from forming. Stir well and taste the soup -- if it's not salty enough, add additional miso.
  • Add the tofu and scallions and let them cook in the broth just until warmed through, about 1 minute.

MISO SOUP WITH TOFU AND BABY SPINACH



Miso Soup With Tofu and Baby Spinach image

I normally use fresh shiitake for this, as this is a more delicate soup, but if you really wanted a meaty texture you could use rehydrated dried shiitake, as they are far chewier, just be sure to remove the stems.
