Instant Shiro Miso Soup
What is Shiro Miso Soup? What does it taste like? I haven’t the words to say.
How do people normally eat it? I know it’s a staple of Japanese diet, but is it like a rice that’s eaten with every meal? No clue.
What I know is that I enjoyed having it before my meal at a Fire Ninja restaurant months ago; so as I embarked on a quest to eat more Asian-y foods, seeing it in the grocery store was cause for a little excitement.
Shiro Miso Soup. The only way I can describe it is exactly that: it’s a soup of white miso. There’s nothing more to say about it.
[Oh, and leaves. These educate me on how limited my scope is; that when I think of eating plants, I only think of fruits and vegetables, forgetting that other plants are edible.]
It tasted like… Shiro Miso Soup. There was warm water that tasted like White. There were leaves, and they tasted like leaves. Some other plant I can’t identify was perhaps the best part, reflecting its scarcity in the mixture.
I enjoyed it. I’m not really sure why.
