    This Ginger Garlic Miso soup is chock full of superfoods:  shiitake mushrooms, ginger, garlic, miso, and bok choy. It’s a great soup for any time of the year when you’re doing your best to avoid colds and ‘flu. It’s also a quick soup to make for a weeknight dinner, as you can have it on the table in 30 minutes or so.

    The post I had originally planned for today was Flourless Chocolate Lava Cakes. I made them, using up some of the expensive chocolate left over from my Christmas baking supplies. They came out of the oven beautifully, but did not cooperate coming out of the ramekins! We sampled them anyway, standing there at the kitchen island at 10 a.m. scooping up warm chocolate stuck in little pots, but stopped right there. They were so overly sweet that we just couldn't eat them!

    I rarely cook with white sugar any more, I like to post healthier recipes here, and this one just didn't seem to belong. I made this Ginger Garlic Miso Soup for dinner and it's a much healthier option!

    I added rice noodles for interest and some cooked chicken for extra flavour. I've made a note in the recipe to use low-sodium soy sauce and low-sodium vegetable broth as miso is naturally salty. This ginger garlic miso soup has a rich broth with deep umami savoury undertones that are almost meaty. I loved the fragrant aroma of ginger in this earthy soup.

    Guaranteed to leave you warm and satisfied!

      So, I did end up making this soup and the flavor was wonderful. BUT, I did not follow the directions. I ended up adding the mushrooms and bok choy about 2 - 3 minutes into cooking the rice noodles because I didn't want the rice noodles to overcook. I ended up adding the miso around the same time. I just kinda winged it.

        Hi Denise,
        Thanks for letting me know. I'm glad you found a way to make it work for you. Great suggestion about timing because it will depend on the type and thickness of rice noodles you use. Thanks for commenting!
