Miso Soup with Taro (Satoimo no Miso Shiru)

Miso soup is called “misoshiru” in Japanese. It is a traditional Japanese soup in which we use dashi for the base, then mix with miso paste. I used satoimo (small taro) for the soup this time, it is little different taste than potato miso soup. Taro becomes soft and sticky!
