TURNIP miso soup recipe

TURNIP miso soup

What kind of dish do you imagine when it comes to turnip?

I’ve heard that turnip in the U.S. has bitter taste. How about your country? Japanese one is not bitter at all, and it’s even sweeter if it’s cooked. Sometimes I see it as pickles in Japan, but it’s actually useful for any kind of dishes such as salad, soup, and garnish.

The taste of turnip is light and simple so it needs great partner to make genuine style miso soup!
I choose juicy and tasty thin fried tofu today. Turnip’s leaf is also important ingredient for the soup if it’s fresh enough.

I haven’t had miso soup in TRADITIONAL category theses days, so I look forward to taste “TURNIP miso soup”.

1 teaspoon dashi granules*2

0.7 oz turnip’s leaf, Chopped

1.7 cups (400ml) water

*1 Feel free to adjust the amounts of miso paste to your liking.
