Miso Soup


​Miso has been consumed in Japan and China for centuries due to its health and anti-aging benefits.  

Miso is a good source of vitamins and minerals, including Vit K, Manganese, Copper & Zinc, plus more.  Unpasteurised miso infers the benefits of probiotics for a healthy gut,  Thus reducing the risk of inflammatory bowel disease, and other gut problems.

1/4 cup unpasteurised brown rice miso
1 Tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
1/4 cup spring onion, finely sliced
3 cups filtered water
1/2 tamari/soy sauce
1/4 cup carrot, grated
1/4 cup zucchini, grated
1/4 cup arame
1 stick wakame
Small cubes of tofu (optional)
​
Soak arame and wakame in 2 cups of water for 5 minutes, then drain.  Remove stems if present on the wakame and thinly slice.

Place all the ingredients in a saucepan on a low heat for 5 minutes.  Stir to combine.  Do not allow the contents to boil.  Enjoy this bowl of flavoursome nourishing goodness.
Miso Soup
Tamari: is made with a high concentration of soy beans, and is usually thicker and richer than most soy sauces.  It is generally wheat free, however it always pays to check the label.  Buy quality when it comes to tamari or soy sauce, your taste buds will thank you!

Wakame:  a subtly sweet edible seaweed with highly alkalinizing properties.  It is rich in iodine and other trace minerals.
​

Arame:  a seaweed loaded with iron, calcium and iodine.  It is used in many different dishes due to its mild flavour.​
