Although you can use American sweet potato, it is best with Japanese sweet potato if you can find it. Besides asparagus and sweet potato, you can certainly add slices of kabocha and green beans as well. This is a very basic miso soup and you can add other ingredients as well. This makes small 4 servings ie what I call Japanese serving size, less than 1 cup per person.

Steps:
- Remove hard part near the root end of asparagus and slice into about 2 inch length.
