Gobo to shungiku no misoshiru / miso soup with burdock root and garland chrysanthemum

The distinctive nutty taste of shungiku together with its hint of bitterness and refreshing note match the deep flavor and aroma of gobo burdock root amazingly well. A very satisfying miso soup.

A very lightly sweetened, fluffy and creamy yogurt mousse. One of my standard dessert choices to serve after a meal with guests.

Konsai no yooguruto misoshiru / root vegetable miso soup with yogurt

A tasty miso soup without dashi! Miso and yogurt, both fermented food, go hand in hand to make a flavorful broth with lingering umami. Here is an example with daikon radish, gobo burdock root and carrot.
