Instructions
- 1
Steep the kombu and dried shiitake in 3 cups water for 30 minutes in a warm spot to make the dashi base.
30 min30:00 - 2
Cut the kabocha squash into 2 to 3 cm pieces; if the skin is thin, you can leave it on.

Strain the steeped dashi into a pot, bring to a boil, add the kabocha pieces and cook over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes until tender.
9 min09:00 - 4
Toast the sesame seeds in a dry pan over medium heat for 2 minutes, then pulse them for 2 seconds in a suribachi or grinder and crush half of them.
2 min02:00 - 5
Remove the pot from the heat, dissolve the white miso paste in a ladle of hot soup liquid and stir it into the soup; add the soy sauce and salt.
- 6
Ladle into bowls, sprinkle with finely chopped scallions and whole toasted sesame seeds, and serve hot.
💡 Tip: Always add the miso after turning off the heat; if it boils, aroma and beneficial cultures are lost. If you do not have a suribachi mortar, pulse the sesame for 2 seconds in a coffee grinder.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Ladle into hot bowls, sprinkle whole toasted sesame and finely chopped scallions on top, and serve with steamed rice.
