This is a great recipe. My mother's miso soup is not this good (don't tell her I said that!) and she has a complicated recipe using bonito to make dashi broth, etc. This was so easy, and tastes like miso soup from a Japanese restaurant. The fish stock granules can be found in most Asian markets, sometimes it is referred to as 'Hon Dashi'.

This tasted very authentic, just like the soup our Japanese exchange prepared for us once.

It was hard to find Dashi, but worth it. I doubled the amount of Miso and reduced the tofu to 6 oz. We just like it stronger. Next time, I'll try adding seaweed also. Thanks for the recipe!

This is a great recipe! I couldn't find dashi at any store, but made some at home by soaking a bunch of dried kombu. DELICIOUS - thanks so much for posting!

My young daughter LOVES miso soup, but it looked mysterious and hard to make. I am so happy I found this recipe - it was easy to make and just as delicious as at the restaurant. We both give it a big THUMBS UP for a warm winter meal. Bonus that its super easy and quick.

Great recipe for a 1st timer. I found it easier to place the miso paste into a separate cup and place a half a cup of the hot dashi broth into the cup, mush and disolve the paste in the cup, and then pour that into the soup. Less paste chunks to find that way :)

Simple and tastes exactly like the restaurant Miso Soup. I will experiment by adding mushrooms and other veggies.

The first time I made this recipe with white miso from the asian market, I couldn't make it edible. However, I really wanted to like this, so I tried again with organic brown rice miso that I found at Whole Foods. It came out wonderful!! I will be making this over and over again. I drained the tofu slices on paper towels (between two cookie sheets with weight on top) before dicing them, and added 1 tsp lite soy sauce to the soup. I cut the recipe to two servings and it was a perfect little snack for my husband and I. Thank you for the delicious recipe!

This was very good and so easy. I couldn't find dashi, so I used 1 tsp kelp granules and 1 tsp fish sauce. I also added wakame (a leafy seaweed), and after tasting it, I added a half-tablespoon more miso.

This soup is just like what you get in the restaurant! Next time, I'll add some seaweed and a little less tofu. This a cinch to make. I can also credit the writer of this recipe with being the reason I shop in the Asian food market - it's a gold mine! The produce is amazing and the prices are great! This recipe changed my life! Thank you!

Just like in the restaurant! I used firm tofu, other than that I didn't change anything and it was perfect...and SO EASY! Now I just need to learn to make sushi rolls to go with it.

This is terrific. Just like in a Japanese restaurant. The only thing I did differently was to make the dashi broth from scratch using a recipe I found on-line. Here it is for those of you who want it: 1 piece kelp (konbu or kombu), approximately 5 square inches (12 centimeters) or 10-12 grams, 1 cup bonito (katsuobushi) flakes, 5 cups cold water Wipe konbu with a damp cloth to clean. In a stock pot, place konbu and cold water over medium heat. Just before the water begins to boil (do not boil) pull off heat and let stand for 5 minutes. Remove konbu, and bring back to heat. Again, right before stock begins to boil, remove from heat and add the bonito flakes. When flakes sink to the bottom, strain through fine mesh strainer. It can hold in the refrigerator for 2 weeks. Thanks for the recipe!

I am a soup lover, and this is the BEST miso soup I have ever tasted outside Japan. Authentic taste and consistancy. I followed the recipe exactly, but added some seaweed for a little extra taste. FANTASTIC!!!

Simple recipe, not for everyone's taste. We call it the "stinky soup", but the flavor is not stinky at all! I add dried shiitake mushrooms, and fried tofu that has been marinated in tamari sauce.

I'm trying to work tofu in my diet. I pulled up this recipe and made a couple of modifications, like I used store bought fried tofu and cut it into 1/4' cubes. Since my tastebuds are still getting used to the texture of tofu I decreased the portion to 6 ounces. I also sliced up 1/2 cup of oyster mushrooms, 1/2 cup asian sweet peas, and 1 cup of baby bok choy. This recipe is definitely a keeper. I just need to cut back on the Daishi due to the salt content and find the right kind without MSG..But this recipe is a 5+++
