Ingredients
2 tsp Westbrae Natural White Miso 2 cup chicken stock, Imagine Organic Low sodium (by TATEJANICE) 7 gram(s) Kelp (Marine Coast Sea Vegetables) Wild Atlantic Kombu Organic 1/3c=7g (by DOTSLADY) 1.5 cup, cubes Turnips 4 tbsp chopped Shallots 6 oz Whiting (fish) 1 cup pieces Shiitake Mushrooms 110 grams Tempeh, about 4 oz, cut into 1/2" cubes1 cup Beet greens, fresh, de-stemmed, choppedchunk of fresh ginger root, plus 1 T grated fresh ginger (optional)
Directions
First, make dashi stock: simmer a piece of kombu plus a chunk of fresh, peeled ginger root in the chicken stock for at least 10 minutes. Add some bonito flakes for the last 5 or so minutes. Strain the stock, wipe the pan out & return the stock to the pan over low heat.
While the dashi is simmering, you can par-cook the chopped turnips in the microwave and chop the beet greens into bite size pieces, thinly slice the shitakes and the shallots.
Once the dashi is ready (it should smell kind of rich and a little fishy), bring back to a low simmer, and add the shallots, beets, beet greens and shiitakes. Simmer gently until the mushrooms look softened and the beet greens are tender. Add the fish (it will break apart as it cooks, no need to chop the raw fillet(s)) and the tempeh. Simmer until the fish breaks apart, and tempeh is hot. Lower the heat if necessary (from this point on do not boi!), spoon or ladle out about 1/4 cup of the stock, whisk the miso into it, then return to the pot, stir and let heat through for another 2 minutes or so.
Take off the heat, stir in freshly grated fresh ginger. Serve with freshly squeezed lime juice, garnish with diced avocado. Can also drizzle a little toasted sesame oil and/or Chinese chili oil on top.
