Step 1

Pour the vegetable broth to a medium pot and bring to a simmer. Then, add the garlic, cabbage and carrots, cover and simmer for about 10 minutes or until the cabbage is tender.

Step 2

While the soup is simmering, dissolve the miso paste in a small amount of warm broth in a bowl.

Step 3

Once the soup is done simmering, take the pot away from the heat and pour the miso sauce over. Stir to combine and taste to adjust seasoning. You can also add soy sauce to taste if desired.

Step 4

Serve warm with cubed silken tofu, sliced green onion and cilantro, if desired. To make this soup more filling, pour over cooked soba or ramen noodles in a bowl.
