Onion miso soup is a comforting dish of Japanese cuisine that combines the rich flavor of sea dashi broth, the tenderness of tofu, and the freshness of green onions. Miso paste gives the soup a deep, slightly sweet-salty taste with nutty notes, while seaweed adds a light umami touch. This soup is traditionally served for breakfast or as a light lunch, helping to warm up and restore energy. Onion miso soup exemplifies the balance of flavors and textures characteristic of Japanese gastronomy, and its simplicity makes it an ideal option for quick and healthy meals.
