    I've been trying to master miso soup so it can be consistent and delicious (I've been making it daily)

    I've been looking for an in-depth video on the subject and wasn't able to find one until now. Thank you so much!

    Would you add, that’s cooking in the miso also alters it from being a living fermented food to a cooked one… So adding it at the end is a good idea for that reason as well?

    Especially appreciated the tip to find out if the prepared Miso already has dashi in it . . . also how to recognize Japanese symbols for Organic and Made in Japan. I've never made Miso soup but purchased White Miso earlier this week and have dashi on order. Can't wait start experimenting with various veggies.

    Ai, found this video too late for my dinner. Used an instant miso soup paste as my leftover veggie soup base. Boiled a tad long (forgot to put in the tomato) and wondered why it tasted less tasty and less miso smell than usual.

    Alrighty now it’s not just you.. I did like this video but unless I missed it in your video or the other three or four I watched there’s no recommendations for how much miso paste to put in say per bowl… i’m curious I’ve been making miso soup for years I’m not a Caucasian American lots of Asian friends but I’m not sure what is recommended I tend to be a bit heavy-handed probably. It would really be good to know safe for each bowl miso soup my supposed to put in a teaspoon a tablespoonof miso, a half a cup, just kidding but really… also I’ve heard time and time again you’re not supposed to boil the miso because it kills the living enzymes. Miso is it fermented food like kimchi sauerkraut pickles all this stuff has enzymes in it that’s good for Our gut if you boil it and it kills it. So I’m told

    I am such a nerdy foodie. I love to learn. I think this is an incredibly helpful video. My dad wanted to make miso soup & we picked up the ingredients today. I was thinking to myself. What should I make with it? Then it hit me! I can make karaage with cabbage and pickled radish on the side 🥰 I'm so excited !

    I'm a big fan of miso soup. I've to make it a couple of times. it didn't come out like it did when I ordered it at my favorite sushi restaurant. 😩 Ugh. Maybe it was the brand of miso paste I purchased. I normally only put tofu, green onion and some seaweed/sea vegetable in it.

    I tried making miso soup today with red miso paste. It turned out disgusting, the taste was so bad and I couldn't understand what I did wrong. Thanks to you now I know: I have both boiled it and kept it uncovered. Also, I put the miso before the veggies and not for last. I was an idiot.
    Thanks for the info! I hope to not make other mistakes the next time!!

    This is so helpful! I love this. My cooking skills in Japanese kitchen are already well trained BUT the order of when to add ingredients like miso paste was totally off. Very often I am worried about the nutrients, so I am grateful that I found this video. ☺️
