This could be THE tran-seasonal soup of all soups… It’s light and brothy, whilst the hearty squash and warming turmeric makes it perfect for an Autumnal lunch…
LEFTOVER STEAMED VEGETABLE MISO BOWL
Serves 2
3 cups (about 12 ounces | 340 g) steamed vegetables (such as winter squash, radishes, broccoli, cabbage, and/or peas)
2 cups (480 ml) filtered water
2 teaspoons finely grated peeled fresh ginger
2 teaspoons finely grated peeled fresh turmeric (optional)
3 tablespoons (1½ ounces | 45 g) unpasteurized chickpea miso, mellow white miso, or brown rice miso, or a combination
Thinly sliced scallions or fresh chives
METHOD:
Put the vegetables and water in a medium pot and bring to a boil over high heat, stirring to ensure that the vegetables reheat evenly. Reduce the heat to a simmer and stir in the ginger and turmeric, if using. Transfer about 1⁄3 cup (80 ml) of the liquid to a small bowl and stir in the miso until dissolved, then stir into the vegetables and remove from the heat (be careful not to let the miso boil, as that would destroy the enzymes). Divide between two bowls, top with scallions or chives, and serve.
NOTE: If you have greens like kale, chard, spinach, or tatsoi on hand, you can stir some sliced greens into the vegetables and cook lightly before adding the miso.
