Miso soup is commonly consumed in Japan. It is served with daily meals. Although the soybean paste is the main ingredient, each family has its own recipe. Some add daikon or seaweed while others cook with clam. Just like french fries to Americans, it is a common side dish in everyday meal for Japanese.

As I grew up eating miso soup everyday, I did not realize until recently its tremendous health benefits. Studies show that daily consumption of miso soup cuts the risk of breast cancer. Rich with antioxidants and protective fatty acids, it also contains full of vitamin E, B12, and many other minerals to boost your immune system.
