Ingredients
BROTH
- 1/2 small onion if onion is aggravating to your digestion, sub shallots or the top of green onions, roughly diced
- 4 cloves garlic if garlic is aggravating to your digestion, omit, minced
- 1 Tbsp ginger roughly chopped
- 1 talk/rib celery
- 1 cup carrot chopped
- 1/2 medium red bell pepper
- 1 cup red cabbage chopped
- 1 tsp curry powder (or sub a smaller amount of ground turmeric)
- 1 trip kombu (dried seaweed // adds minerals and aids digestion)
- 1 oz. dried shiitake mushrooms
- 2 kale stems, chopped (reserve greens for serving or other uses)
- 1 tsp sea salt plus more to taste
- 1 healthy pinch black pepper plus more to taste
- 1 Tbsp nutritional yeast (optional)
- 10 cups water
TONIC*
- 2 tsp chickpea miso paste (or sub soy miso // ensure gluten-free for GF eaters)
- 1 cup broth (make using recipe above // we strained out the veggies)
- 1 small green onion thinly sliced
- black pepper
Instructions
- BROTH: Heat a large pot or dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add a little water (or sub oil) and onion, garlic, ginger, celery, and carrot. Season with a bit of salt and pepper and sauté for 4-5 minutes.
- Add bell pepper, cabbage, and curry powder and stir. Sauté for 3 minutes, then add kombu, shiitake mushrooms, kale stems, salt and pepper, nutritional yeast (optional), and water.
- Bring to a low boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for at least 30 minutes, preferably 1 - 1 ½ hours.
- Season to taste with more salt and black pepper. Then, 1) serve as a vegetable soup, 2) strain and use as a broth (cool and store leftovers in the refrigerator for 5 days, or in the freezer for 3 months), or 3) strain and make a tonic with miso.
- TONIC: To make a serving of miso tonic, add 2 tsp miso paste to a serving bowl and add a bit of the broth. Stir to combine. Then add ~1 cup broth and stir to combine (add more broth for a less potent miso flavor, less broth for a more potent miso flavor). Then add a bit of chopped green onion and serve. Best when fresh but will keep in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Though not ideal for reheating because the aromatic qualities and nutritional benefits of miso are damaged when boiled.
Notes
- *If adjusting batch size, tonic measurements in ingredient list will not accurately reflect 1 serving of tonic. Follow instructions section instead.*Nutrition information is a rough estimate calculated for 1 tonic without straining and without optional ingredients. *This is not a traditional miso soup, but rather a gut-calming tonic with miso.
