10 Cheap Japanese 10-Minute Soups for Seniors Living Alone

10 Cheap Japanese 10-Minute Soups for Seniors Living Alone 🔔 Subscribe to join our family and more Japanese kitchen wisdom 🤍   / @granny-yuki   These are ten cheap Japanese 10-minute soups for seniors living alone, each one a single bowl of miso soup or clear soup that costs between 50 cents and $1.75. If you cook for one, you know how it goes: you buy a whole block of tofu for one bowl, and the rest goes sour in the fridge. You'll hear how my grandma Yuki used the bowl she ate from as her measuring cup, and why she rolled little balls of instant miso soup, miso-dama, every Sunday night. There's osumashi, the clear tofu soup, eggplant miso soup (nasu no miso-shiru), mushroom miso soup with enoki, Hokkaido-style corn and butter miso soup, potato and onion miso soup, salmon miso soup, sweet potato miso soup (satsumaimo), and chicken meatball soup with ginger. You'll hear why the sweet potato goes into cold water, and what thirty seconds at the sink does for a potato. And at number one, tofu and wakame miso soup made with real dashi, from a morning when I was six that took me thirty years to understand. These are fall and winter soups, each made for one person, and every one starts with the same bowl.
