    I've been told by a miso "expert" that white miso is traditionally used in summer as sweeter foods expand/cool the body whereas the darker saltier miso is used in winter as it withholds heat so warming during winter. I've noticed I'm not able to find as many white or shiro miso in winter. More importantly than taste, boiling destroys the probiotic features of miso!

    All miso soup experts say boiling miso kills its health benefits, that's the most important #1 mistake to avoid. I always take it off the stove and wait for a few moments before adding paste.
    Since I cook miso soup only for myself, I don't care for authentic or a 'correct' recipe. I like my food spicy, so I add whatever I feel like, or rather have in a fridge :))) Like kimchi, ghost peppers, a couple drops of Carolina Reaper sauce, ofc wakame, veggies, noodles, meat, chicken, fish, etc.
    The main things to keep in mind is to avoid boiling miso, avoid undercooking ingredients and eat it fresh right after it's done. And you should be just fine 🤗

    I've been making miso soup for years, and this video is the first time I've heard the suggestion of keeping it covered lol. Makes sense, obviously, but it's usually not an issue since I eat it right away.
    I'll add that, if someone is just getting started or only wants to get one type, I suggest the shiro / white kind. In my experience, it's easier to make that kind more like the aka / red one (a good soy sauce is the key) than it is to make the red kind like a white one.

    I've heard that boiling miso can kill the beneficial probiotic bacteria. One "tip" I use is to dissolve the miso first, in room temperature water, before finishing cooking of the other ingredients. It dissolves pretty rapidly (especially when "encouraged" by a fork...), and makes adding it quick and easy.
    (I also like to add tofu, natto, and mushrooms! Part of a great breakfast!)

The ideas for cooking with tofu one; the things to do in wintertime Japan, the grilled mochi, rice bowl ideas (perfect now that the winter is coming to England) and of course, the tsukemono ideas. So many! The kinds of videos I wish people would do with regards to cultural education and social confidence, is showing folks how to correctly navigate themselves through a hotpot restaurant, a BBQ Korean-style restaurant (even using veg) and any of those other unfamiliar traditional set ups with many moving parts which may deeply confuse and embarrass the uninitiated but respectful and enthusiastic travellers. If generous UA-camrs had never talked me through how to eat morisoba and know what to do with the sobayu, the teapot that accompanies the plain noodles, I'd have been mortified and just stared at it with a mild anxiety.

    Great video! I make mis soup every morning for my wife's breakfast, and one of the fun (and challenging) things is coming up with different variations so that it isn't always the same. You can put so many different things in it! One of my favorites is okra and nameko for a neba-neba twist. Also, using aosa instead of wakame. The aosa is delicious, and it also has a wonderful aroma. Oh, and sometimes I skip the dashi and use niboshi powder instead. So many ways to mix it up.
    Also, one tool that I've come to love that makes mixing in the miso a thousand times easier is a 味噌こし (miso koshi), which is a little basket-shaped strainer that you work the miso through. Eliminates the chances of there being an unincorporated lump of miso paste hiding at the bottom of the pot/bowl.

    Traditionally, miso soup is a soup that my mother makes in about 10 minutes before a meal, so I add the dashi stock and ingredients, lightly simmer the soup, and then dissolve the miso at the end. Food served at restaurants uses the restaurant's own soup stock, but for home meals, it is rare to make soup stock from the ingredients, so the ingredients are boiled in hot water using commercially available soup stock to dissolve the miso. Or, if you want to make it easier, boil the ingredients in hot water and dissolve the miso stock at the end. The latter method is easier, but the taste is fixed to the manufacturer's settings. Well, the variations of ingredients are endless, so if you want to enjoy it easily, you can start by finding a manufacturer's product with your favorite flavor and trying out the ingredients. Many young mothers in Japan are starting out that way too🙂

    • @alldayieatlikeashark

      It sounds like you have a deep connection to miso soup through your family traditions, which is wonderful to hear. Your approach of using commercially available soup stock to simplify the process is practical for many home cooks who may not have the time or resources to make dashi from scratch. Additionally, experimenting with different miso flavors and ingredient combinations can add a personal touch to the dish and make it even more enjoyable. It's great to hear that this tradition is being passed down and adapted by younger generations in Japan and beyond.

    It's a good thing I saw your video in my video suggestion. I was starting my journey to make miso from scratch. I actually have a problem because miso and other ingredients are unavailable locally, so I encounter miso paste, and the only one there is Doenjang. I'm not sure if it has dashi in it.

    I searched for ‘plant based miso soups’ today and found your channel. I watched a couple others that didn’t mention not to add dashi if the miso paste already has it. Taking the screenshot to the market with me so I can , hopefully, identify the characters 😁

    Many thanks for this detailed and informative video! Not sure if you mentioned it, but one idea I got from a cooking video series in Japan is to use kiriboshi daikon for miso soup. The nice thing about it is that when you soak the kiriboshi daikon, it gives you a really delicious dashi for the miso soup. I like to add dried shiitake dashi to that and it's very tasty. A thought just came to me that if you want to make a vegan suimono/sawaniwan type of soup, I'm thinking you could filter the kiriboshi daikon and shiitake dashi to remove any stray particles and with some seasoning, that might be good too.....

      @@alldayieatlikeashark I don't always make it but I always eat it, hehe! I live in Japan so I usually eat a traditional Japanese breakfast. What I do is make a batch of miso soup in a 2 quart pot, portion it, refrigerate it and it usually lasts about 5 days. Another suggestion is that if you want a more complex or interesting flavor, I recommend using half miso and half Korean doenjang which is a Korean version of fermented soybean paste. Much gratitude to you for the effort you make to educate English speakers about the health benefits of a Japanese diet!

    I made miso soup for dinner tonight. I use dried shiitake mushrooms after they have been rehydrated. But I never use the liquid that it soaks in because it makes the flavor taste a little off (kind of like dirt). Just a preference but it makes a big difference to me. The thing that i wonʻt do again is bring the soup to a boil and iʻm going to add sprouts. Good video.

    Ok I tried it, I only had dashi powder and I think I put a wee bit too much because it was salty, it was really nice with ginger, spring onion, tofu and carrots.

    About the "loss of aroma". I'm skeptical of that reasoning from a food science perspective. The lid on miso soup is surely to keep it warm. And I speculate that not cooking miso has more to do with preventing a breakdown of the ingredients from boiling than it has to do with preventing "aroma" from escaping.
    Here in Japan, my favorites for miso are shimeji and asari clams.
