Salmon and Mushroom Miso Butter Soup

Ingredients
Instructions
- Preparation: Thinly slice the onion and cut the potatoes into bite-size pieces. Trim the stems off the shimeji mushrooms and separate them into small clusters. Cut the salmon into bite-size pieces.
- Simmer: Add the onion, potatoes, mushrooms, dashi powder, and water to a pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
- Cook the salmon: Add the salmon and cook until it is cooked through.
- Add the miso: Turn off the heat and dissolve it into the soup.
- Serve: Ladle into bowls and top with butter.
Notes
- Let it sit for a few minutes, then pat it dry before adding it to the soup. This helps remove excess moisture and any fishy smell.
- I like adding a small piece of butter to each bowl, but you can stir it into the pot if you want buttery flavor in every bite.
- Cook it just until done so it stays tender and doesn’t break apart in the soup.
