Cooking Instructions
- 1
Cut the eggplant into bite-sized pieces and place them in a pot.
- 2
Drizzle sesame oil over the eggplant, trying to coat it evenly.
- 3
Add water to the pot and bring to a boil. Add the dashi stock powder and fried tofu. Once it boils, add the miso paste.
- 4
After adding the miso paste, let it simmer for a few minutes. Many people turn off the heat immediately after adding miso, but we like to let it simmer.
- 5
After all, isn't pork miso soup delicious when simmered in a large pot? The same goes for miso stir-fry; thoroughly cooked miso is delicious!
- 6
As it simmers, the miso will dissolve on its own, so just give it a quick stir.
- 7
Finally, top with chopped green onions and it's ready to serve.

I wanted to eat harusame bean noodle miso soup that's popular these days, but I didn't have pork!

If you go through the trouble of removing the bitterness, the flavors will really soak in. If you poach the egg, the soft-set egg yolk will mix with the harusame bean noodles. Delicious.

Miso Soup with Mushrooms Miso Soup with Mushrooms
When I used to live in the U.S. and didn't have access to Japanese mushrooms like shimeji and shiitake, I used mushrooms instead in miso soup. It's actually pretty tasty! Since then it's become one of my favorite dishes to make.Place the mushrooms in cold water (don't start boiling them with hot water) and simmer them very gently to extract their umami. If you are in a hurry, add a little dashi stock. Don't add too much miso since it will overwhelm the flavor of the mushrooms. Use plenty of mushrooms for the best result. For 3 servings.
