Kabocha miso soup is a nourishing Japanese soup made with sweet kabocha squash, tofu, seaweed, and miso broth. Packed with fiber, probiotics, and antioxidants, this anti-inflammatory soup supports gut and skin health.
Prep the dashi broth in a pot over medium-heat, according to the packet instructions, allowing it to almost come to a boil.
2 cups dashi broth
Lower the heat to bring the broth to a simmer. Add the kabocha squash and shiitake mushrooms. Cover and let them cook for about 5 minutes, until the squash begins to soften.
1 cup kabocha squash, ¼ cup shiitake mushrooms
Lower the heat and add the miso paste using a small strainer, stirring it into the broth until fully dissolved. Remove any leftover solids from the strainer.
1 Tbsp miso paste
Add the tofu, seaweed, and green onions, and cook for another 2–3 minutes over low heat.
