Maui4me The recipe clearly shows the ingredient dashi which is prepared with Kombu and bonito.
The inclusion of these ingredients was implied. Hmmm indeed. Where was the kombu kelp? All miso soup I've tried was a combination of simmering a piece of kombu into water for a time, remove it, ratchet up the heat and adding katsuobushi bonito flakes that makes it become Awase dashi. Strain out the flakes in the hot stock and then adding appropriate amounts of yellow or white miso. Made this using homemade dashi and think it had great flavor. That being said, flavor was on point. Added some shitake mushrooms and look forward to making it again.
I made this using red miso, which I've been told is more typically used in Korean dishes. I liked it's stronger taste though. I made this for a Japanese dinner I hosted recently and some of my guests declared it better than the usual restaurant miso they enjoy. A wonderful recipe. It is absolutely chock full of tofu and other ingredients if you follow the recipe exactly, but if you are ore of a broth person like me I'd go with a bit less stuff when making it. I also used veggie stock instead of bonito flakes to make this dish vegetarian and it turned out great.

Once dashi stock comes to a boil, turn heat down to low and stir in and dissolve the miso. We asked him to document. Thanks, Trevor! I just figured it was extracted from, you know, a miso plant, or maybe the miso bird, a Japanese relative of the chicken. The Japanese people around me treated miso like a god, so I knew it was special, maybe even magical, and whenever I visited a Buddhist temple or Shinto shrine, it seemed possible that lurking in the shadows among the statues of fox spirits and the bundles of sacred straw there might be a statue or likeness of a miso.
Never saw one. Not until I wrote an entire book related to Japanese cuisine did I learn the secrets of what the Japanese call misoshiru , or miso soup.
Now the tables have turned. I've morphed into an obnoxious miso-soup purist. I won't touch those convenient packs of instant mix, nor will I buy standard miso at a standard store. When it's time to make the soup in my New York kitchen, I bow before the altar of authenticity, don the robes of a Zen master metaphorically speaking and practice the ancient art of the miso soup Nazi—hey, the Japanese had fascism, too. Watch me make it from scratch, after the jump.
True miso soup, it turns out, starts not with miso at all, but with seaweed. As Japanese food aficionados know, the basic broth that serves as the foundation for most Japanese cooking, including miso soup, is called dashi. To make dashi, you drop sheets of crackly dried kelp into cold water. For a large batch, I use about eight cups of water and 5 to 7 broken-up sheets of dried kelp, called konbu in Japanese.
Turn the heat on medium and hang around the kitchen, keeping an eye on things. You want to bring the water to the cusp of boiling, without letting it actually boil. This takes a while. Conventional wisdom says you never want the water to boil when you're making miso soup. Later, after you add the miso, boiling water will almost certainly kill the active enzymes in live miso that add taste and benefits to your health.
This, I believe, will anger the god of miso. As the water heats up, the kelp releases flavor. While waiting for this process to occur, I marvel at the fact that a Japanese chemist named Kikunae Ikeda , in , discovered that kelp releases the delicious compound known as glutamate , which produces the savory taste the Japanese have long referred to as umami. Ikeda realized the compound could be manufactured into a white powder which we know and love today as MSG—or, according to those who write the ingredients list on chips and other tasty snacks at your grocery story, "hydrolyzed vegetable protein.
Drink up. The one or two remaining purist Buddhist chefs in Japan who are actually vegetarian would be content to use only the kelp broth as the soup base. However, most everyone else proceeds to a second stage in the production of the broth.
In other words, if you are served real miso soup, it's almost certainly not vegetarian.
