[@kirstynr45]

Thanks for sharing! Miso is my favorite ingredient and flavor to use. I often do not make miso soup because it dirties the kitchen. This miso bowl meal prep idea will be so helpful!! I don’t like the texture of mochi, but love fu and will be adding that as a topping when the soup is done 😊😋 Also, thank you for the miso oxygen tip! I had no idea that it needs to be resealed to stay fresh and will be covering it from now on. 💛

[@MiwasJapaneseCooking]

Great idea to add fu as a finishing touch!! they are pretty too! Do your local supermarket carry fu? I hate dirtying the kitchen too! so this miso ball has been super helpful! thank you for your comment Kirstyn!

I love the idea of those little miso soup balls! I'm totally going to do that in ice cube trays (and then in a container I think). I'll probably add a bit of oil to the tray (like making a cake) so it will be easy to get out. Thanks for the tip! It will be much easier to convince myself to make miso soup for with breakfast after summer is over. :)

Hi. Miwa. Greetings from Malaysia. May i know what is the difference between yellow and white miso?What brand would u suggest for me to buy that does not have addictives/preservative in miso paste, dashi stock? What should i look out for in the ingredients list on packaging? Sorry for the long comments as i need to be careful on ingredients due to my 5 yr old boy eczema. Tks

[@MiwasJapaneseCooking]

If you look at the back and it only said, rice, soy bean, salt ( sometimes barley). they usually doesn't contain any additives. 無添加= No additive in Japanese!

[@CakeandCosplay]

Does anyone know the name and or kana for those colourful gluten I think balls? Trying to find some locally or online

[@thedoover6520]

This is wonderful

[@MiwasJapaneseCooking]

Thank you very much for your kind comment The Do Over!!

[@tksaurusrex]

Miwa i have a question! Sometimes you keep dashi packets whole and then remove the packet during cooking (for example at the beginning of your "3 miso soup recipes" video). In this video you opened the packet and stirred in the seasonings. How do you decide whether to open the dashi packet or not? Thank you, i love your channel and i'm learning so much!

[@MiwasJapaneseCooking]

Thank you very much for your comment !! I don't open the packet for most of the time since it's pretty fishy and potent! But when I make miso ball or fried rice to season it, I open the package. Basic rule is keeping it closed and discard ! Sorry to make you confused!

[@JustRDanni]

Question: The preserved plum on the rice - which plum is better? I've seen x3 different types on the website for the store I will use: whole sugar plum which looks like the one you have here, half sugar plum and whole winter plum. All are preserved - do you rehydrate them before use?

[@MiwasJapaneseCooking]

It's very much on your preference! but usually, I have two kinds which are whole sugar plum and while winter plum. while winter plum is very tart and salty (in general). the sugar plum is more mild so great to start with this kind!

[@JustRDanni]

@@MiwasJapaneseCooking Thank you for your response! I think I will get a few of each and see which ones my husband and I prefer. Do you know how to make them at home? I live in South Africa and we only really get the darker winter plums here, but really enjoy your videos on making ingredients at home from scratch, like the ginger :)

[@dianekey4780]

Since using the flavor packets is new to me and I do not read Japanese, could you find good choices on Amazon and include the links. I generally go vegan with some fish. I live in Orange County, California so there are many store choices with H-Mart being a very large one. A picture of products I can show the workers at the store is also an option besides Amazon. Thank you for helping me cook tasty, healthy Japanese meals.

[@magdalenagrabowska8067]

It's off-topic, but how do you prepare Umeboshi for eating ? Once I bought a few and couldn't eat it at all, way too salty. Should it be just soaked in water for some time? Or should I do something else? :)

[@MiwasJapaneseCooking]

we usually enjoy as is. topping on the rice or as a filling of rice ball. but just a small portion each time. I love to combine with something sweet to offset the tartness and saltiness of umeboshi. I made a umeboshi dressing in below video! I hope you will try that!! www.shinagawa-japanese-cooking.com/post/turnip-salad-with-pickle-plum-dressing

Hi Miwa, I just subscribed to your channel! Thanks for the great recipes, I especially appreciate the one on gut health and fermentation. Not vegan but trying to up my vegan meals:). Question for you. How would you use the dry tofu in the miso balls? you need to rehydrate first and cook? I had some Japanese friends when my husband was in business school and they thought me how to make butajiru with dry tofu. Thanks

[@MiwasJapaneseCooking]

you can just cut dry tofu into very small pieces then mix into the miso just like how I do in the video. you don't have to rehydrate or cook in advance. just remember that the dry tofu will expand more than double when it's rehydrated. ^^ thank you for your kind words!!

Sorry I'm late with my reply; yesterday we were at my parents for their anniversary :) I love these miso dama. I've even seen books with ideas. I've put them on my wishlist but never ordered them hahaha I usually have to make miso soup for just myself. My husband doesn't like the taste of miso and my daughter it's always a guess if she'll eat it. Perhaps she'll eat the corn one. But I love miso, I really should try to make it more for myself. I usually add whatever I have left in the refrigerator. I really love kabocha, spinach, tofu or konnyaku. If I add daikon I always just heat the daikon through so it's warm but still crunchy. Did your chldren eat the one with chocolate or did they decide at mealtime it wasn't the best flavour afterall? hahaha Kiri boshi daikon is not easy to get here, but it's so easy to make it yourself so I usually do that. I've been making batches all winter because it dries do quickly then :D I love mochi, but it's hard te get here (especially since the pandamic started and with brexit; I got a lot of things from the UK). I've seen videos to make it yourself so perhaps I'll try that someday.

This may be impossible, but do you know of any good miso paste brands that I might find online (I live in the US) are gluten free and lower in salt? Gluten free is a must, since some in our family have Celiac disease (wheat gluten makes them very ill). The low salt isn't a must but it would be a plus since my husband is recovering from heart surgery.

[@MiwasJapaneseCooking]

I don't have specific link, but miso is usually made with rice malt , soy beans and salt. so I think there should be gluten free one. MUGI MISO is the one contains barley. s0 be careful with it! I hope you will find something!

[@TheBlacktressDiaries]

Do you ever use red miso paste? I impulse bought it because it was on sale, but I've never seen anyone use yellow. Can they be used the same way 🙂?

[@MiwasJapaneseCooking]

absolutely use a red miso!!! Just a personal preference which miso to use! My family prefers yellow miso. In general, red miso has a stronger flavor and saltier, so you might wanna use less!

Hi Miwa... Excellent recipes.... I'm learning a lot abt Japanese cuisine and the ingredients name nowadays... Actually couple of days back I was thinking of asking you abt baby corn... And what a coincidence you prepared your rice with corn today... Do you guys use baby corn in your dishes... Just curious to know... Nowadays I'm searching lot's of Japanese ingredients on my online grocery stores... though I don't buy I'm learning from you how to handle those ingredients... Here since those items were a foreign origin they're so costly here... But still I'm curious to buy your miso paste...let me see when I am able to make it. And as always I enjoyed your smile and your blushing face at the end when the rice cake got messy while you eat... It was cute... Lots of love Miwa...❤️❤️❤️

Why is miso soup good for you?💜💜💜💜🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧💜💜💜💜💜

[@MiwasJapaneseCooking]

Thank you very much for your question Jill! I have a lot to tell! haha when I make miso soup, usually I need some carbs along with side dish with veggies and fish. so it helps me to make balanced meal because just miso soup is not filling enough for me. If I make pasta, for example, pasta is hearty and satisfying enough. I don't feel like having anything additional.😆 I'm not saying pasta is not good enough nutritionally but it's just how it works for me. 😅 Also, miso soup is very versatile. I can change up the ingredients. I never get tired of it! I hope this made sense!
