Miso Soup with Shiitakes and Snap Peas
Prep Time:

12 minutes
Servings:
4 servings
Total Time:
17 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 tsp avocado oil or other neutral oil
- 2 cloves garlic finely grated
- 1/2 inch knob ginger peeled and finely grated
- 4 oz fresh shiitake mushrooms stems removed
- 4 cups Water
- 2 cups sugar snap peas 8 ounces
- 1/4 cup white miso paste
- 2 green onions white and tender green parts
Instructions
- Select the Sauté setting on the Instant Pot, add the oil, garlic, and ginger, and heat for 2 minutes, until bubbling. Add the mushrooms and sauté for 1 minute, until they begin to wilt and the ginger and garlic begin to brown on the bottom of the pot.

- Put the miso paste in a small bowl. Ladle 1/4 cup of the liquid from the pot into the bowl, then mash the miso against the side of the bowl and stir until it is fully dissolved. Add the miso mixture and the green onions to the pot and stir to combine.
- Ladle the soup into bowls and serve piping hot.
