Dinner Tonight: Miso Soup 101 Recipe

• 1 medium onion, sliced thinly in half moons
• 1 cup chopped greens, such as kale, collards, spinach, etc.
• 1 medium carrot cut into thin rounds
• 1 three-inch piece wakame sea vegetable (optional-I didn't have this)
• 1/2 package soft tofu (optional)
• 1 quart water
• 3 to 4 tablespoons light or dark miso
• Chopped scallions or parsley for garnish

1. Bring the water to boil in a sauce pan while you slice the onions, carrots, and optional wakame. Add them to the pot, bring to a boil, then lower to a simmer for ten minutes, covered.
2. Add the greens and simmer, uncovered, until tender. If using tofu, add 5 minutes before the greens are finished.
3. In a small bowl, add a ladleful of the soup stock to the miso paste, and stir until blended. Reduce the flame to low, add the diluted miso, and stir well. Taste for seasoning, adding salt or a bit more miso. Serve and garnish.
