Directions

  1. Boil the komatsuna and cut it into 3-cm lengths. Remove oil from the aburaage by pouring boiling water over it and cut it into proper sizes. Remove the base of the shimeji mushroom cluster and divide it into small clusters.
  2. Bring the dashi stock to a boil and add the aburaage and shimeji. After the ingredients are lightly cooked, dissolve the miso and boil only for a moment. Finally, add the komatsuna.
