Technique to learn

Strainer Miso Whisking

Using a small sieve submerged in simmering broth allows paste to dissolve uniformly without clumping.

Instructions

Step 1: Bring kelp dashi broth, ginger matchsticks, and soy sauce to a gentle simmer in a medium soup pot over medium heat.

Step 2: Add halibut chunks carefully to the hot broth and cook for 4 to 5 minutes until opaque.

Step 3: Add cubed tofu and chopped mustard greens, cooking for another 2 minutes until greens wilt slightly.

Step 4: Turn heat down to low so the soup is barely hot.

Step 5: Place red miso paste in a fine strainer submerged partly in soup, stirring with a spoon until fully dissolved into liquid.

Step 6: Ladle gently into warm soup bowls and finish with chopped fresh scallions.

Cooking tips

Use a ladle mesh sieve to dissolve red miso paste smoothly without leaving lumps in the soup.
Gentle handling of halibut prevents fish chunks from breaking apart during simmering.
