About Miso Paste
Actually I have three kinds of miso paste in my fridge so I decided to use all of them.
But using only one kind of miso paste is totally fine.
Just for your information, I introduce each miso paste I got for today.↓
I use 1 teaspoon of shiro-miso (shiro means white, so this is white miso).
It contains less salt rather than normal one.
Also, some of them contains sugar in it. This one does contain sugar, so it tastes little sweet and not so salty.
And 2 teaspoons of normal red miso.
By the way, the package says “kyo kaiseki”, it’s just the brand name.
This miso paste is most common kind of miso paste because it has nicely balanced flavor.
I think this is very useful miso paste you can use for any dish. For example, I use it for making miso soup everyday.
It contains dashi (stock) of bonito and kelp.
Finally half teaspoon of soybean miso.
Previously mentioned two kinds of miso paste are made from malted rice but this one is made from soybean koji instead of that. That’s why the color is unique, it’s very dark.
This one also contains dashi (stock) of bonito and kelp.
I use a little bit of soybean miso because the taste is unique. Iit’s kind of bitter, or stronger than others, so I use it as secret ingredient.
Directions
1. Boil the water (as much as you need according to the package of instant ramen). When it comes to boil, add half amount of the separate packet of flavoring.
2. Add sugar.
3. Turn off the heat, and add miso paste. (Please turn off the heat in advance because the flavor of miso paste could be lost if its boiled.) Use whisk or something like that to dissolve miso paste completely.
4. Please check the taste of soup here. Add more miso paste or the packet of flavoring if the taste is too weak. If it’s too strong, add more water and heat up.
5. Prepare new pot, and cook noodles. Cook for 2-3 minutes according to the package. When it’s done, drain hot water from noodles.
6. Reheat the miso soup, and pour it to the bowl.
7. Put noodles into the bowl, and put all of toppings.
Ready to eat!
If you have several kinds of miso paste, I highly recommend to mix them.
It must give you complex flavor and tastes amazing!
