Today’s miso soup is made with zucchini, shiitake mushrooms, and fried tofu (Aburaage). Sliced zucchini rounds soak up the umami flavor from Dashi, shiitake, and Miso. Fried tofu adds richness to the broth.
Simple dashi broth with Katsuobushi is used in this recipe, but you can use any types of dashi including the instant kind. Please check Back to Basics: How to Make Dashi to learn more about different types of dashi.
