Great Miso Soup Ideas.

I find that I can simply just play around by changing different ingredients everytime and add a few tbsp of miso into the soup and the kids will never get bored with having the soup quite often. It all depends on what are the other dish that I am preparing for that meal. If I cook other dishes of seafood and meat, then  I will prepare what I have for dinner tonight as shown in the first picture below. If I have other vegetables dishes but not meat or fish, then I will prepare miso with some fishball or chicken fillet strips and so on. Just be creative and try new mehods.

The picture below is just miso with 1 box of soft silken toufu cubes, fresh chinese yam (huai shan) cubes, carrots also cut into cubes and dried seaweeds. For method of cooking, just refer to the fishball link above. Its the same. Just different ingredients used.



The other day, I prepare miso with ready ingredients available in my fridge on a lazy day. Its just some minced meat (marinate with light soy sauce, sesame oil and corn flour), 1 big carrot, 2 small potatoes, 1 corn on the cob (cut the flesh), a beaten egg and a stalk of shanghai green (cut thinly and add in lastly). My little one love it, so do the elder brother and sister because they love corn. This way, they get to eat their favourite corns easily together with the soup and don't get the flesh stuck to their teeth and without getting their hands dirty. The corns also adds some natural sweetness to the soup and it smells really nice!


Its just my way of experimenting with food. Just a way to make sure my kids have a balance diet of meat and vegetables.
