Ingredients

4 servings

4 cups dashi (Japanese soup stock)
4.5 oz nameko mushrooms
7 oz soft/silken tofu (kinugoshi dofu) ((half block))
2 Tbsp hatcho miso ((it‘s made of soybeans and koji with a unique, bold flavor; feel free to skip if you don‘t have it))
2 Tbsp miso ((use 4 Tbsp if you don‘t use Hatcho miso))

Steps

Gather all the ingredients.
Add 4 cups dashi (Japanese soup stock) to a pot and bring it to a simmer on medium-low heat.
Rinse 4.5 oz nameko mushrooms thoroughly but quickly under running water, and discard the ends.
Cut 7 oz soft/silken tofu (kinugoshi dofu) into small cubes.
Once the dashi is boiling, add the nameko and cook for 2–3 minutes. Turn off the heat.
For the best result, add 2 Tbsp hatcho miso and 2 Tbsp miso to the soup now, right before serving.
Add the tofu and bring it to a simmer (not boiling). Turn off the heat and serve. Enjoy!
You can keep the leftover in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. I do not recommend making miso soup ahead of time as miso will lose its flavors.
