All about Kurīmī sake miso sūpu

The salmon soup with creamy miso is a traditional dish of Japanese cuisine that has conquered tastes around the world. With a combination of intense flavors and creamy texture, this soup is a real explosion of flavor.

The main ingredient of this dish is salmon, a fish rich in omega 3 and highly appreciated in Japanese cuisine. The salmon is cut into cubes and cooked on a base of fish bouillon, kombu (marine algae) and dashi (fish and algae-based hot fish). This base is perfected with the addition of miso (fermented soybean paste), which gives a unique taste and an avelud touch to the soup.

In addition to salmon and miso, other ingredients can be added to the soup to give more flavor and texture, such as tofu (soy cheese), shimeji or shiitake mushrooms, onions and wakame (marine algae). These ingredients also contribute to making the soup even more nutritious and healthy.

One of the most striking features of the salmon soup with cream miso is its texture. The bouillon is thick and aveluded, thanks to the mixture of miso with fish bouillon and the salmon proteins that break down during cooking. The taste is a balanced combination between the salty miso, the umami (fifth basic flavor, present in foods rich in glutamate) of salmon and the mild sweetened salty of fish bouillon.

In addition to being a delight, salmon soup with cream miso also brings health benefits. In addition to being rich in omega 3, it is a source of proteins and vitamins of the B complex, which help in the proper functioning of the nervous system and in the production of energy. In addition, miso is a natural probiotic, which contributes to the balance of the gut flora.
