Miso soup or Misoshiru is a customary soup of Japanese origin. This is made of fermented soy beans called miso. There are different varieties of Miso soup; each variety has its own place of origin.
This Miso soup recipe is one of the simplest varieties. It makes use of white Miso paste. You will be amazed on how quick and easy this soup is prepared.

If you haven’t had this soup before, then I think that you should make one for yourself so that you can see what I’m talking about.

For example, there are Miso soup varieties that use dried bonito flakes, shavings of dried shitake mushrooms, and many more ingredients.
