Kabuto Instant Tofu Miso Soup

Description: A single-serve (≈18 g) instant miso soup packet which includes miso-based soup base and bits of dehydrated tofu and perhaps other garnish. According to nutrition info it contains about 40 calories per packet.

You add hot water to the packet, and it gives you a quick miso soup with tofu. Ideal for a light snack or side dish when you want Japanese-style soup fast.

Taste/Smell: Expect the familiar savoury/salty flavour of miso (fermented soybean paste) with soft tofu pieces. The aroma will be mild but distinctly miso-like (slightly bean-savoured) rather than pungent. The texture: light broth, tofu adds a soft bite. Because it’s instant, there’s less complexity than freshly made miso soup.
