Chicken Soboro and Thickened Tofu Soup

The weather was getting cool, so I wanted to have a dish with thick an-sauce.I combined healthy tofu with the ground meat that I love to make a warming recipe.-Please adjust the amount of grated ginger to your taste.-Silken tofu is smoother and softer than firm tofu. You can also use tofu meant for hot pots and simmered dishes.-You can also use ground pork, which has lots of umami and is delicious. For 2-3 servings. Recipe by Komomomomo

This is a home cooking staple. I've written it down for my daughter as well myself.When mixing the ground chicken, it's important to keep mixing without stopping or the soboro will not be finely textured. If you like lumps of ground chicken, please adjust the method accordingly....The crumbly chicken soboro will turn moist by adding some katakuriko dissolved in water at the end.The chicken soboro will be moister and deeper in flavor if you use thigh meat. For 4 servings. Recipe by kazz72

I can't get enough of tofu soboro.I use homemade 2x concentrated mentsuyu made with soy sauce and mirin in 1:1 ratio. I just combined them in a pot, and heated up the mixture to evaporate the mirin's alcohol.Adjust the amount of mentsuyu depending on the brand or type you use. Recipe by Mikikimiki

The tofu becomes somewhat like a meat texture. I figured if I can make tofu hamburgers or tofu tsukunes (patties), why not make tofu soboro? So I decided to make it with the combined seasonings for chicken soboro I usually use, and it was so delicious!Good for those who are on a diet, like me? So I have been making this a lot.At first, cook the tofu on medium heat, but it might start to spatter and burn, so gradually lower the heat.After pouring in the seasoning, let it sit for a while to soak in the flavor and create the crumbly texture.

Since I like chicken soboro (ground chicken), I imitated it using koya dofu (freeze-dried tofu). Also, my family does not like shirataki rice, so I tried mixing it in.This is on the salty side, so reduce the soy sauce amount to taste. Recipe by Teika v

I created this recipe because I wanted to make filling dish that doesn't use meat.The key is to cook the tofu well until the moisture is completely evaporated! Draining the tofu in ahead of time reduces the amount of cooking time, but it was troublesome for me, so I didn't bother doing it. Soboro by itself might taste strong, but eating with rice and vegetable make the taste perfect. Recipe by tawamiho

Plain chicken soboro on rice is nice, but we love vegetables so chicken soboro on rice with the addition of a lot of vegetables is much better. Add some kimchi, chilli oil relish or gochujang paste to make this spicy hot. If you make extra soboro you can use in your bento the next day as a side, or on top of rice as soboro bento.Combine the mince and seasonings in advance before you start cooking. The mince will be seasoned evenly. If you cook the mince for too long it will become too tough, so take it out after simmering. You might think it is too much effort but it will be worth it. Discard the thin roots of the bean sprouts for better texture and flavor. After slicing the shitake mushrooms leave to dry for about 5 hours. This will concentrate the flavor. Recipe by -MON-

I made this soup when I had a package of leftover silken tofu left over.Do not stir right after pouring in the beaten egg. If it starts to resemble egg drop soup, it is done.Use your favorite greens.I think it will taste good if you drizzle on sesame oil before serving.You could also use shredded imitation crab instead of chicken. Recipe by Maronkurimu

In our household, when I season the soup with miso and use pork we call it Buta-jiru (pork soup). When I season the soup with soy sauce and use chicken, we call it Kenchin soup. I normally double the quantity that would be too much for small families. I halved it to make a recipe to post.I like thickly-sliced daikon and carrot because they absorb a lot of broth. Recipe by Pukuttopukumaru

I wanted to eat a tasty braised dish.The cooking liquid itself has a lot of meaty flavour, and so it's best to let the kabocha squash soak it up.I don't use katakuriko in this recipe.Roughly crumble the chicken mince, but there's no need to crumble it finely.Add the soy sauce only after simmering with sugar for a while. The sweetness of sugar is absorbed better this way.When you use pork mince or pork and beef mince mixture, use less vegetable oil or omit it. Recipe by @rinna

I made this for my elderly mother, who doesn't like meat.Be sure to cook it patiently to evaporate the moisture. This is especially important at the beginning. If the heat is too strong the tofu will splatter, so pay attention!If you let too much moisture evaporate though, the crumbles will become dry and mealy. If you turn the heat off too early, it will be soggy. Just stop cooking when it reaches the crumbly soboro stage.The heat level and judging when to stop cooking are very important! Recipe by hina

I rearranged a surinagashi soup (made with dashi and ground up ingredients) to a warm miso soup.I use strong bonito flake dashi soup and thinly flavor it with miso. If it doesn't have a strong dashi flavour, it tastes like baby food.Step 1: Once you add the potato, simmer while stirring. If you leave it, it will get thick and chunky at the bottom of the pot.
