I tried making miso balls using dried vegetables
Miso balls made from dried vegetables
As the seasons change, the number of chilly days is increasing.
At times like these, having a cup of warm miso soup for breakfast or lunch not only gives you a sense of relief, but also fills you up.
Drinking miso soup is comforting, but on busy mornings or at lunchtime, it can be a hassle to make it by cutting and simmering vegetables and dissolving the miso.
At times like these, "Miso Balls" allow you to easily enjoy miso soup!
If you keep miso balls on hand whenever you have time, you can enjoy delicious miso soup just by pouring hot water over them.
And dried vegetables are a great ingredient to use!!
Miso ball recipe
Ingredients: 10-12 servings
- 150g miso
- 15g dried bonito powder
- Dried foods (dried wakame seaweed, green laver, dried tofu)
- Dried vegetables (as many as you like)
For dried vegetables, use large ones such as okra and cucumbers to enjoy the texture. Also, we recommend using vegetables that are popular on the plate such as onions and white onions, as they give off a strong broth.

【How to make】
- Mix the miso with bonito flakes and powdered soup stock, then divide into 13-16g portions and roll into balls.
- Before the miso dries, mix in your favorite ingredients. (It's also cute to decorate the outside so you can see what's inside.)
- Store in an airtight container. You can refrigerate for up to a week or freeze for up to a month.
When it's time to eat, just put the miso ball into the bowl, pour in hot water and it's done!

If you want miso soup with lots of ingredients, use dried vegetables!
This time I used mixed vegetables and dried okra . Immediately after pouring in the hot water, you can enjoy the texture of the vegetables. As time passes, the vegetables absorb the water and blend into the soup, and the okra has that irresistible sticky texture.
Mixed vegetables are colorful and cute to look at, so it's easy to make miso soup. Please try it on a weekend when you have time.
