Description

A warm and comforting Japanese onion soup that highlights the natural sweetness of onions in a rich dashi broth, enhanced with soy sauce and miso paste.


Ingredients

  • 2 large onions, thinly sliced
  • 4 cups dashi broth
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon miso paste
  • Salt to taste
  • Chopped green onions for garnish


Instructions

  1. Add the sliced onions to a pot over medium heat and sauté until they are soft and caramelized.
  2. Pour in the dashi broth and bring to a simmer.
  3. Stir in the soy sauce and miso paste, mixing until well combined.
  4. Season with salt to taste.

Notes

For a deeper umami flavor, consider adding more miso or soy sauce. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days.
