Recipe Notes

After absorbing the moisture from the vegetables, the miso will spoil easily so use it in miso soup as soon as possible.
Alternatively, Mozzarella cheese, avocado, firm tofu or boiled egg can be used in this recipe.
You can also marinate egg yolks in soy sauce for 6 to 24 hours. It is easy to make so you should definitely try it out.
