Soup and Stock Recipes

Explore a variety of comforting Japanese soup and stock recipes, from classic miso soup to cozy favorites like corn potage and wonton soup. Enjoy light, refreshing miso soups in summer and heartier variations in winter—there’s a perfect bowl for every season and occasion.

Learn to make essential Japanese soup stocks (dashi) using simple ingredients like kombu, dried bonito flakes, shiitake mushrooms, and anchovies. These flavorful bases add rich umami to soups, broths, and sauces, forming the foundation of many traditional Japanese dishes.
