dirty miso

one of the finer simple dishes is life is miso-shiru. a staple item we ate several times a week in japan and hit-and-miss around the house since then.

one of the twists that we usually take on the standard variety (seaweed and miso broth with carrot, tofu, and scallion bits) is a lil' somethin' we call dirty miso. to this end, we take the basic recipe and litter it up stew-style--mushrooms, noodles (soba or rice), broccoli, daikon, hijiki, celery, apple, etc. you get the picture.

it still remains a very simple deelish dish with a wholesome goodness that you can feel nourishing your every cell. giddyup.
