soup girly hack for miso soup on-the-go

warm, sippable miso soup anytime, anywhere 🌸 🍲

Couldn’t end 2024 without one final soup recipe for my fellow soup girly gang 🍲 whether you’re traveling for the holidays or just looking for an easy way to sneak in a balancing soup in between all the rich holiday fare, this is the hack to whip together a quick miso soup!

Also linked a couple of the special ingredients like freeze dried tofu and toppings — they’re a bit harder to find, but if you can visit a Japanese grocery store, you’ll find everything there 👍🏼

Ingredients:

• Base miso soup ingredients for each ball:

  • 1 tbsp white miso

  • 1 tbsp awase miso

  • 1 tsp dashi powder

  • 1 tsp scallions

  • 5-6 small pieces of freeze dried tofu

• Toppings:

  • Dried daikon (look for dried kiriboshi)

  • Dried seaweed (look for wakame seaweed)

  • Dried shrimp (aka dried papery shrimp)

Instructions:

• Combine the miso base ingredients together in a bowl, then roll into a ball

• Place the dried toppings on a separate plate, then roll the ball into the toppings so they stick

• If you’re not traveling, just keep in a tupper ware but if you’re traveling, wrap each ball in seran wrap, then a rigid container so they don’t get squished

• To make, just add hot almost boiling water, let it sit for 5 mins, then mix well
