Ingredients
  

For the Soup Base
  • 2 tablespoons Miso Paste For a milder flavor, tahini can be used.
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh Ginger Minced; ground ginger can be used as a substitute.
  • 1 cup Lemon Juice Adjust to taste; lime juice can be an alternative.
  • 4 cups Vegetable Broth Enhances flavor; can use water, but will dilute taste.
For the Garnish
  • 2 stalks Green Onions Finely chopped; chives or shallots can substitute.

Equipment

  • medium pot

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. In a medium pot, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of minced fresh ginger and sauté for about 1-2 minutes, until fragrant and slightly golden.
  2. Reduce heat to low and stir in 2 tablespoons of miso paste until it forms a smooth, roux-like consistency.
  3. Gradually pour in 4 cups of vegetable broth, stirring to ensure the miso dissolves completely without clumping.
  4. Once the soup reaches a simmer, add in the juice of 1 lemon and stir well to combine all the flavors.
  5. Finely chop 2 green onions and sprinkle them into the soup before serving.
