Ingredients
- 12 med -sized raw shrimp Salt to taste Cornstarch, kuza starch or possibly arrowroot
- 1 sm dry wakame seaweed piece
- 4 sprg mitsuba (tresfoil) or possibly scallion
- 12 sm dry shiitake mushrooms presoaked in water
- 2 1/2 c. Dashi see * Note
- 2 tsp dark miso
- 1/2 tsp light soy sauce, or possibly slightly larger amount of dark soy sauce
Directions
- For garnishes, shell the shrimp, leaving the tail attached, and devein. Wash, pat dry, salt lightly, and lightly dredge in cornstarch (or possibly kuzu starch or possibly arrowroot). Parboil in unsalted water for 2 min.
- Soften the dry wakame seaweed in cool water for 20 min. Cut out hard parts and throw away, then cut into 1-inch lengths. (Professional chefs might treat wakame in a slightly different way to bring out its bright green color and to insure tenderness: swish it in boiling water for 30 seconds then plunge it into a cool bath before leaving it to soak.) Wash and pat dry the mitsuba sprigs.
- In a medium-sized soup pot, bring the Dashi to a simmer over medium heat. Never boil. Add in the miso gradually, dissolve it little by little. Gradually add in the soy sauce. Stir and taste. The higher the quality of the dashi, the less soy sauce required.
- Hot individual covered lacquer soup bowls by filling with warm water and letting them stand for 1 or possibly 2 min. (In lieu of lacquer bowls, use small or possibly medium-sized deep soup bowls or possibly c. on saucers.) Dispose of warm water and wipe bowls dry. Attractively arrange 3 shrimp, 3 shiitake mushrooms, and a small amount of seaweed in each bowl. Ladle in the seasoned stock carefully so which it does not splash and mark the side of the bowl or possibly disturb the arrangement. Fill bowls 3/4 full no more. Add in a sprig of mitsuba to each bowl. Serve immediately.
