Preparation
Not specified
Cooking
- Make the dashi: Gently rinse the kombu piece.
- Place it in a medium pot with 4 cups (960ml) water and gently simmer for 10 minutes.
- Don’t let it boil, or the kombu flavor will turn bitter.
- Once the kombu piece is soft, remove it and bring the water to a boil for just a few minutes.
- Reduce the heat again and add 1 cup (240ml) more water.
- In a small bowl, stir the miso paste together with some of the hot dashi water (until it’s not clumpy), then stir to incorporate it into the soup broth.
- Add the ginger, scallions and shiitakes, turnips, and carrots and simmer on low until the turnips are soft and fork-tender (about 35-40 minutes).
- Note: If your soup is too thick, add 1-2 cups (480ml) more water until it is a thinner consistency.
- Add the tofu and cooked soba noodles.
- Then taste and adjust seasonings, adding a few teaspoons of soy sauce if you like.
- Store leftover soup in the fridge for 3 to 4 days.
