Ingredients

2 servings
  1. 1Burdock root (seasonal ones are sweet)
  2. 1/2Onion
  3. 200 mlVegetable bouillon or dashi stock
  4. 1 tbspOlive oil
  5. 1/2 tspSalt
  6. 200 ml★Soy milk
  7. 50 ml★Heavy cream (optional - if you are on a macrobiotic diet, use soy milk, rice cream, or amaaake)
  8. 1 tbsp★White sesame paste
  9. 1 tbsp★White miso
  10. 1Salt and pepper

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Wash the burdock root with a kitchen brush. Cut in half. Slice 1/2 of it diagonally and thinly or shred. Soak in water with vinegar. Slice the rest of it lengthways with a vegetable peeler for the chips.

  2. 2

    Heat oil in a sauce pan and fry the onion and burdock root. When the burdock root is translucent add the salt. Continue to fry until wilted.

  3. 3

    Add the bouillon or dashi stock and cook until the burdock root is cooked through. (Finish this step the night before. You will just put everything into a food processor next morning!)

  4. 4

    Transfer 3 into a food processor and blend with ★ ingredients until smooth. Put the mixture back into the sauce pan and reheat over a low heat to ensure that the soup does not boil.

  5. 5

    Burdock root crisps: Heat the oil to 160℃. Pat dry the burdock root slices very well and put them into the oil. Deep-fry slowly until crispy.

  6. 6

    How to make them without deep-frying: Mix the burdock root slices well with salt, pepper and 1 to 2 tablespoons of olive oil.

  7. 7

    Arrange 6 onto a piece of paper towels and microwave for 4 minutes without covering. Turn over and microwave for a further 1 to 2 minutes until crispy.

  8. 8

    In the oven Mix them with salt and oil and cook in the oven at 200℃ for 20 minutes until crispy. This really brings out the concentrated flavour of the vegetables, as if they've been dried.
