Aka Miso (Summer Miso Soup) Recipe
Recipe
Ingredients
6 cup ichiban dashi (recipe) 1/2 cup aka miso (red soybean paste) 1 aji-no-moto (msg)
Recipe
Preparation
Place the ichiban dashi in a 2 quart saucepan and set a sieve over the pan. With the back of a large spoon, rub the miso through the sieve, moistening it from time to time with some of the dashi to help force it through more easily. Bring the soup to a simmer over moderate heat. Then remove from the heat and stir in a small pinch of MSG. Pour the soup into bowls, add misoshiru no-me (miso soup garnish - see recipes) and serve at once. If the soup seems to be seperating, stir to recombine it. Miso soups are sweeter than other Japanese soups and usually are served toward the end of a formal Japanese meal.

Food Tips of the Week
How to Cook Beans
Beans can be tricky to cook properly. One useful tip is to add any salt or seasoning near to the end of the cooking time as they can prevent the beans from softening properly.
This also applies to any acidic ingredients like vinegar or lemon juice.
Ignore people who say you need to add salt at the start of cooking any foods - this is a myth that science has now disproved.
Frozen Fish Can Taste as Good as Fresh!
One of the problems with using frozen fish is that it often tastes bland and stale after it has been defrosted. This can be easily overcome by defrosting the fish in a bowl of milk, which brings back the 'nice' taste of fresh fish.
Blueberries, A Superfood that Tastes Great Too!
Blueberries are packed with phytoflavinoids and antioxidants - both extremely good for your health. They are also rich in vitamin C, something that most of us could do with 'getting a bit more of', and also quite high in potassium. Some expert nutritionalists claim that eating blueberries helps to reduce the risk of serious complaints like cancer and heart disease
