The basic stock (dashi) is made by pouring boiling water over dried bonito tuna flakes (katsuobushi) and a piece of dried kelp (konbu) and letting it steep for 10-15 minutes or so. Then you strain the dashi and add some dried seaweed (wakame) some white miso paste, some diced tofu and some sliced green onion (if you want). Heat it up till just before boiling and serve.

All the ingredients are inexpensive and readily available in a decent Oriental foods market ....and the whole process of making miso soup takes about 20 minutes.

If you can find this dashi, go get it! My wife uses it for her home made miso soup and ramen.

Here’s ramen she made the other week.

Tomato (soup or bisque), New England clam chowder, baked onion, potato and cheese.

I'm glad you asked. In my opinion, you just can't beat a good onion soup. You would initially think, "onion!" The cheese, the bread, the onion, so good. Sometimes tortilla soup kills it. Soup on souperman...

What's the difference between soup, and "bisque"? Perhaps I might like lobster soup even better than the lobster bisque I've had?
