Miso Tahini Soup

  • Recipe Submitted by on

Category: Healthy Recipes, Soups

 Ingredients List

  • 1 small-medium delicata squash, seeded and sliced into 1/4-inch crescents
  • 1 medium white turnip, peeled and cut into 3/4-inch pieces
  • 4 cups water
  • 4 tablespoons white miso, or to taste
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • zest of one lemon
  • ~3 cups of cooked brown rice
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1 bunch of chives, minced
  • toasted nori (or kale), crumbled, for serving
  • toasted sesame seeds

 Directions

1. Add the squash and turnips to a large pot, cover with the water, and bring to a gentle boil. Simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and let it cool just slightly. Pour a few tablespoons of the hot water into a small bowl and whisk in the miso (to thin it out a bit--this step is to avoid clumping). Stir the thinned miso back into the pot along with the tahini, and lemon zest. At this point, taste, and adjust the broth to your liking, it might need a bit more miso (for saltiness)...or more tahini.

2. To serve, place a generous scoop of rice in each bowl along with some of the squash and turnips. Ladle broth over the vegetables, and finish with a few slices of avocado, a sprinkling of chives, toasted nori, and sesame seeds.

3. If you have leftovers and need to reheat the soup, you'll want to do so gently, over low heat, to preserve the qualities of the miso.
