Spinach and Shrimp Miso Soup

"This quick simple-to-make soup is clock full of shrimp and spinach. The only time consuming part of making this is peeling all the shrimp (which isn't included in the prep time but takes about 30 - 45 minutes). Recipe adapted from Bon Appetit (September 2004)"

  1. This is yummy. I never made anything with miso before and of course the local grocery store didn't have any. When I looked for substitutes, nothing sounded like a very good substitution. I decided I needed to find the real thing. Interesting stuff. Reminded me of vegemite. I only used one pound of shrimp because it's so expensive and could only find the really little ones already cooked so added at the end and heated through.
     
  2. This recipe is the bomb! I’ve made it two times with shrimp and spinach. I’m going to give it a go with pork. Watch out, getting crazy width it.
     
  3. This was great!
     
  4. Have had a terrible cold, fever and sore throat combined for five days. I read this recipe and it sounded so good that I just had to make it up! I did add 3 cloves garlic, lotus roots and pea pods from the garden. This was fantastic. It soothed the throat, real comfort food. Thanks for posting this recipe. I will be making this on a regular basis!
     
  5. This is great, I made it without the miso, and it was still great, I could not find miso at my store. I'm going to look for it and try again
