Filling Tonjiru (miso soup with pork and vegetables)
This is the ultimate version I arrived at after many trials.
The key is to use a generous amount of sesame oil at the end. The flavour is greatly enhanced by it. Two kinds of miso are used in the recipe, but of course, just one kind is still fine. Adjust the strength and taste of miso to your liking. I recommend using a highly aromatic sesame oil. Recipe by Bananazakuro.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Cut the pork slices into bite sizes. To prepare the vegetables: Peel, then cut the daikon, carrot, burdock root into rolling wedges by rotating the vegetables as you cut. Pre-boil the taro root but leave a slight crunch, and cut into bite sized pieces. Boil the konnyaku, and cut with a spoon into bite sized pieces as well. Chop the green onion finely.
- 2
Heat the saucepan, add a generous amount of sesame oil, and stir fry the pork. When the pork is cooked through, fry the daikon, carrot, burdock root, taro root, and konnyaku until all the ingredients have been coated with the oil.
- 3
Add Japanese soup stock (dashi) into the pot from Step 3. Simmer the vegetables while skimming foam off the surface until the vegetables are cooked through. Serve in a dish, and garnish with chopped green onion. If you'd like, sprinkle with ichimi or shichimi spice.

Professional-Tasting 'Tonjiru' Pork Miso Soup Professional-Tasting 'Tonjiru' Pork Miso Soup
I improved my recipe after watching a TV programme on the secrets of cooking Tonjiru the professional way.The key is: 1- Run hot water over pork to remove the excess fat and protein that forms the scum. At the same time, it seals the flavour and aroma inside. 2- Cook vegetables from cold water. It tastes better this way than frying the vegetables in oil first. 3- Don't add Japanese soup stock (dashi) powder from the beginning. Use it sparingly to adjust the taste. 4-Add miso half at a time. The fist time miso is added, it is to help the vegetables absorb more flavour. The second time is for adjusting the taste. 5- The timing to add the pork is important. Add it at the end so it remains aromatic. Recipe by Fumia -
Hearty and Creamy Tonjiru (miso soup with pork, vegetables and a dash of milk) Hearty and Creamy Tonjiru (miso soup with pork, vegetables and a dash of milk)
I tried added milk to regular tonjiru, since milk goes well with miso.The ingredients are all cut into thin slices to cook quickly.The potatoes are cut in larger pieces as they tend to crumble more easily.When adding miso, turn off the heat, dilute with some liquid first to dissolve in the stock.The milk should go in after the miso has dissolved completely (just like when you're preparing cream stew).

Pork Miso Soup (Tonjiru) Pork Miso Soup (Tonjiru)
So delicious and quick! I used daikon, carrots and onions in this. Thinly sliced pork cooked in toasted sesame oil and vegetable dashi stock. Added miso and minced ginger at the end.Recipe adapted from Nami @justonecookbook 💕💕 I made this 2 nights ago, cooled and stored the entire pot in the fridge. The cool thing about cooking it earlier is that you don’t have to remove the pork scum as you cook. I just covered the entire pot with cling wrap, with the cling wrap touching the soup. When you remove it, the pork fat will stick to cling wrap and you can just throw it away 🙈.

Simmered Tonjiru (Pork Soup) Simmered Tonjiru (Pork Soup)
I make this pork soup (tonjiru) all the time. It seems that I make it a bit differently from most people, so I uploaded the recipeBy simmering the soup after adding the miso, the vegetables absorb the flavor of the miso as well as adding umami to the soup, making it taste really good. Simmer with a small amount of miso, then add some more miso at the end to enjoy its fragrance. The soup is also good with grated garlic. For 5 to 6 servings. Recipe by Keyua -

The most common form of dashi is a stock made by heating water containing konbu (edible kelp) . You can also use granulated or liquid instant substitutes like “Hondashi”. If you want to use substitutes for this recipe, add 2/3 tsp of Hondashi and 600cc of water instead of the steps in [10] and [11].
