Enjoy the warm taste of Japan with Miso Soup which is considered traditional soup dish for its ease of preparation and dense with taste. This soup seems to have a clear soup base which is the Japanese soup stock called as Dashi to which miso paste has been added to give its unique taste. Sinking in the broth are cubes of soft tofu giving the soup a smooth, delicate feeling and; protein profile. Accompanying the tofu you may enjoy softer strands of seaweed like in wakame, adding the reminiscence of the sea. Swimming in the flavoring mixture, completed with the sprinkle of green onions which are finely chopped, the soup is a perfect blend of the right combination of tasted perfectly and nutrient-dense ingredients. Anyway, Miso Soup can be taken as appetizer right after you have set a Japanese meal or as secondary dish, a snack which is healthy enough to be eaten alone.
