Instructions

  1. Rinse the dried shiitake mushrooms, then put them in a small bowl with a cup of hot water. Allow them to soak for 20 minutes.
  2. In a large pot, combine the re-hydrated mushrooms along with their soaking liquid, sliced portobello mushrooms, soy sauce, ginger, and sesame oil. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to medium low and simmer 15-20 minutes, or until mushrooms are tender.
  3. In a small bowl, combine the miso paste with a scoop of the soup broth and mix until smooth.
  4. Stir the miso paste into the soup. Allow the soup to come to a simmer, but don't boil.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in the spinach.
  6. Ladel into bowls and garnish with sesame seeds and shriracha, or sliced green onions.

Notes

  • To Freeze: You can freeze this miso soup in a freezer safe container for up to two months. Defrost over night in the fridge.
  • Mushroom Stems: Shiitake stems are tough and woody, and should be removed before using them. However, most dried shiitake mushrooms have the stems already removed.

  • Rinse: Dried mushrooms should be thoroughly rinsed before soaking, to remove any debris. I use a colander.

  • Soak: Don't skip the rehydrating step. This mushroom miso soup comes together very quickly, but you do need plan for soaking the dried mushrooms for 15 minutes. And the soaking liquid adds a delicious extra layer of umami flavor to the soup.

  • Miso paste: It's important to stir in the miso paste at the end of cooking time. Never boil miso, because boiling will damage the aromatic notes and kill the probiotic properties. Storage: Mushroom miso soup will keep, stored in an airtight container in the fridge, for up to three days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop over low heat.
