This delicious version of Miso soup is a bit heartier with the addition of buckwheat soba noodles.

Serves: 4

Prep Time: 10 min

Cook Time: 5 min

Ingredients

6 Cups Water

1/3 Cup White miso

1 Tbsp Soy sauce (optional)

1 Package Firm silken tofu

12 Ounces Cooked buckwheat soba noodles (see hints below)

1 Cup Baby spinach leaves

1 Bunch Green onions, chopped

1/4 Tsp Crushed red pepper flakes

Directions

1 Place the water in a large pot and bring to a boil. Remove about 3/4 cup of the water and place in a bowl with the miso. Whisk until very smooth. Return to the pot and add the remaining ingredients. Heat through for about 1-2 minutes, then turn off the heat, cover and let rest for about 5 minutes.

Hint: Cooked buckwheat soba noodles are available in some areas of the country which saves a bit in preparation time. If you cannot find pre-cooked soba noodles, use about 4 ounces of dried soba noodles and cook according to package directions before using in this recipe.
