What if the flavor is not strong enough?
Try increasing the amount of miso paste or lengthening the cooking time of the soup to allow the flavor of the miso to more fully integrate into the soup. Also, try adding a small amount of soy sauce or shibori fish flakes to enhance the flavor.
-
What can I do with tofu that breaks easily?
Choose a firmer type of tofu, such as medium or firm, and gently add it to the cooked soup. If the tofu breaks easily, cut it into cubes before cooking the soup to reduce the amount of stirring.
-
How can I avoid noodles that tend to stick?
While the noodles are cooking, make sure there is enough water in the pot and stir the noodles frequently to avoid them sticking together. After cooking, you can rinse the noodles with cool water to remove excess starch and prevent sticking. Alternatively, you can add a little cooking oil to the noodles while they are cooking to help prevent sticking as well.
