This was prepared for me often when I was a child. Smile widely after eating this and you'll have black teeth. It's a nostalgic dish with the memory of my mother's home cooking and the smile of a snot-nosed kid.

Adding pork enhances the richness of this soup. It also taste great with rice, eaten like a rice porridge. Recipe by Sakaeryouriten

Steps

1

Remove the tentacles and innards of the squid without breaking the ink sac, and rinse. Remove the thin membrane, rinse, then cut into 5 cm strips.
2

Thinly slice the pork into bite-sized pieces. Break the island tofu into large bite-sized bits. Chop up the nigana as you like.
3

Boil the bonito dashi soup. Add the squid, pork, and tofu. Add the miso to taste (I recommend leaving it on the light side).
4

Add the squid ink, soy sauce, and salt to taste. Add the nigana, and then it's done.
