I never made miso soup before, and this was easy. It was a hit at our sushi dinner party. You forgot to mention what to do with the tofu. I put it in with the mushrooms and miso paste and let it boil. I will definitely make this again.

Quick, sinmple and very nice! I used dried shiitake, so I dropped them into the boiling water measured for the soup, then turned it off and let them soak for a few minutes, then proceded with the recipe as written. I also couldn't resist adding a couple "slices" of carrot.

So yummy! I actually used nori instead of scallions. I also added a wee bit of soy sauce, about a teaspoon full.

Mm, thanks for the miso soup! I used dried shiitake, a pinch of veggie stock and white miso, though next time I make this I'll try red or brown. Thanks again, great soup.

Delicious, I make this regularly however I always add some Wakame to make it extra nutritious.

This soup is very good. I doubled the recipe, used button mushrooms instead of shiitake (what I had on hand) and used half low-sodium vegetable stock. It was wonderful! I brought the rest to work for lunch the next day and it was even better.

I too added some wakame and a dash of soy. I wondered about the missing dashi, however without this, the mushroom flavor was able to shine! Nice soup.

Love love LOVE this soup! It was my first time making miso soup from 'scratch' and it was excellent! I added some pepper flakes, to spice it up, and ate it with edamame and rice. Thanks for the great recipe!

Not as good as the Miso Soup at our Sushi bar, but it wasn't bad. Thanks for an easy soup.
