Black Garlic And Red Miso Soup With Enoki, Shitaki, BokChoy And Scallions

Black Garlic and Red Miso are relatively recent discoveries for this cook. Anyway, this flavor pairing worked great!

From gastronomic guesswork


The broth was rendered with 6 cups water, 1 lb of beef short ribs, 6 tablespoons of red miso, 1 bulb of black garlic, and a dash of black pepper. After pressure cooking this for 25 minutes at 15 psi, I discarded the beef remnants, added 6 sliced shitaki mushrooms, and 3 baby bok choy. This was finished with enoki mushrooms and thinly sliced small green onion (scallions). Worked great as a complement to this small plate. Black garlic is an emerging great ingredient, and red miso is something that I can't wait to play with again. Delicious broth!
