@thecornerplot: Here's a delicious 10-minute lunch that won’t make you sleepy in the afternoon.
I've been missing my daily miso soup, so decided to make it today with some delicious veggies from the fridge.
I'd made a pan of dashi before I left for Japan (and frozen it), but powdered dashi is fine to use instead and a great pantry essential.
Cook your noodles (I used buckwheat) until al dente, then strain and cool in cold water. Put them in your serving bowl.
Shred your vegetables.
Bring the dashi to simmering point then add your shredded vegetables (you can finish the soup with raw veg if you prefer). When the veggies are cooked, stir through a couple of tablespoons of miso, but don't let it boil. Spoon over the noodles in the bowl and top with any other shredded veggies and herbs. Add a touch of togarashi for spice, a little seaweed salt, and a drizzle of toasted sesame oil. Now get slurping!
