miSO Easy To Make
Here simple, easy, delicious dish that is jam packed with minerals and nutrients.
Miso is a delicious fermented food that has been part of a Japanese culinary staple for many centuries.
Today it is a favorite of health minded people in the West because of its many anti-aging benefits. It is a traditional Japanese seasoning produced by fermenting soybeans with salt and the fungus Aspergillus oryzae, known in Japanese as kōji, and sometimes rice, barley, or other ingredients. It is high in protein and rich in vitamins and minerals. An all-purpose seasoning with a rich, hearty, often meatlike flavor and aroma, miso can be used (often like a meat stock or bullion) in the preparation of soups, sauces, dressings and other foods as described in The Book of Miso (Shurtleff and Aoyagi, 1981).
Today, most of the Japanese population begins their day with a warm bowl of miso soup believed to stimulate digestion and energize the body. When purchasing miso, avoid the pasteurized version and spend your money on the live enzyme-rich product, which is also loaded with beneficial microorganisms.
Miso has a wonderful sweet/salty flavor that can be used in a wide variety of recipes. The color of miso can vary from light yellow, good to use in a sweet miso soup during warm weather, to a deep dark brown with earthy tones and hearty flavor, which can be cooked with cubed root vegetables, wakame sea vegetable and dark leafy greens during the colder months. When cooking with miso use just enough to enhance flavor and avoid overpowering the dish with a strong salty taste.
Include Natto in your recipe for added K2. Nattokinase, enzyme extracted from Natto , is an aspirin alternatives without high side effect profiles. Natto has been used as a folk remedy for improving circulation, diseases of the heart and blood vessels for hundreds of years. Nattokinase “thins the blood” and helps break up blood clots. You will only find nattokinase in natto, since it is produced through the specific fermentation process used to make natto. So why buy it in supplement form when you can consume it whole with all the other benefits. Although limited with evidence, natto is shown to be very powerful remedy for many other things including but not limited to Fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, muscle spasms, infertility. These are things that many women struggle with.
A groundbreaking new study shows that Natto has a positive effect on the blood clot associated Covid Spike protein.

There are so many more benefits that we as humans haven’t realized. Science has a long ways to catch up to mother nature. Remember Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
Just follow the natural laws imprinted in traditional foods to gain back your balance naturally, effectively and practically. Give your body what it needs to allow it to work as it is divinely designed to do.

- 4 cups pure clean water
- 1/2 cup green onions chopped
- 1/2 cup green chard or other greens; chopped
- 3-4 Tbsp unpasteurized miso paste I use Miso paste by MisoMaster
- 2 Tbsp wakame flakes (sea vegetable) I use Wakame from Main Coast called Alaria
- 1 Tbsp Natto
In a medium safe saucepan, bring water to a low simmer. Add a little of that hot water with the Miso paste in a small separate bowl, whisk until smooth and set aside. This will ensure that the miso paste won’t clump when added in to the soup. I like to use Miso Masters brand of Miso paste. Add the sea vegetable flakes and simmer for 3 minutes. I use Wakame from Main Coast called Alaria Wild Pacific Wakame. It is not in flake form. I just place in blender and create flakes. Add remaining ingredients to the pot and cook for another 5 minutes or so. Taste and add more miso if desired. Serve warm. When ready to consume your soup then add the well whisked Miso paste from step 2 and Natto. This way, you keep the nutrients of Miso live.

Nutrient Density Of Miso
6. Strengthens the quality of blood and lymph fluid.

8. Protects against radiation due to dipilocolonic acid, an alkaloid that chelates heavy metals and discharges them from the body. The binding agent zybicolin in miso is effective in detoxifying and eliminating elements that are taken into the body through industrial pollution, radioactivity and artificial chemicals in the soil and food system.
9. Strengthens the immune system and helps to lower LDL cholesterol.
