Miso soup origins

Must mix the miso..

Many people in Japan consume miso soup at least once a day. The origins of this popular dish can be traced back to ancient times. It became a ‘daily meal’ for the samurais during the Kamakura period (1185–1333), and, during the age of Japanese civil wars. The recipe for its ‘instant paste’ was developed for military commanders to eat — which made miso soup an easily-preparable and accessible meal.

Miso soup is derived from miso paste as well as a traditional Japanese fish stock called Dashi. Dashi (recipe here) stock (the base for the soup) is made from dried sardines, dried kelp (a type of seaweed), and shavings of dried smoked bonito or dried shiitake mushrooms.
