I've told you guys before about my tonjiru (豚汁) before, with big chunks of pork belly and vegetables, it's more like a hearty pork and miso stew than a soup. Tonjiru (or Butajiru) is a kind of Miso Soup with pork and a lot of root vegetables such as Gobo (burdock root) and carrot.
Instructions to make Tonjiru (Miso Soup with Veggies and Pork):
- Chop all vegetables and pork into small pieces. (Since I have a small child, I cut them into a child-sized pieces, but you can cut as you wish.) Heat a pot with the sesame oil, add all the veggie and pork and fry on medium heat.
- Once cooked, add dashi soup (Japanese soup stock made from fish and kelp. You can also find "dashi powder" which you can make dashi easily by just adding water) and keep cooking on low heat with the lid on until the vegetables are soft, usually about 10 min.
- Finally add miso. Using a ladle, dissolve miso with some dashi soup. This is the good way to dissolve miso when making miso soup. Then mix in the miso to the veggies and pork and it's ready to eat! It is also good to garnish with a bit of "shichimi" - a mixture of red pepper and other spices.
Even though it is a Miso Tonjiru has a distinct pork flavor and strong taste from Gobo. Don't get alarmed because of Gobo, it actually tastes very good. All the flavor of the pork. Miso soup is great anytime of the year, but in colder seasons, I like to make something heavier and heartier, like adding more vegetables and sliced of pork and transfom it into a tonjiru. We are making healthy, nutritious Tonjiru, pork miso soup with lots of vegetables.
