Directions
- Wash the shijimi well with water and soak in fresh water to remove the sand. Slice the onion and cut the aka-togarashi into round slices.
- Bring the dashi stock to a boil and add the shijimi and onion. After the shells open and the shijimi is cooked, dissolve the miso and boil for a moment.
- Serve the miso soup in bowls with the aka-togarashi sprinkled.
★ A Note
Further sprinkling sansho-ko (Japanese pepper powder) makes the miso soup tangier.
