Butter Beans in Miso Broth

Butter Beans in Miso Broth is a comforting and flavorful dish that combines the creaminess of butter beans with the umami richness of miso broth.

Cooking Time: 30min

Serving: 2 servings

INGREDIENTS:

  • can butter beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 can fresh peas
  • 2 cups chicken or vegetable stock
  • 1 tablespoon miso
  • 1 teaspoon sherry vinegar (or lemon juice)
  • 1 teaspoon butter
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Finely sliced scallions (green onions), for garnish
  • Olive oil, for drizzling

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the finely sliced scallions and sauté until they become soft and start to brown.

2. Pour the chicken or vegetable stock into the skillet and gently stir in the miso and sherry vinegar, ensuring they are well incorporated.

3. Add the butter beans and fresh peas to the skillet, stirring gently to combine all the ingredients.

4. Keep the skillet on low heat, allowing the flavors to meld together. Simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until the peas are tender.

5. Season the soup with black pepper to taste. Be mindful of adding additional salt, as the miso already adds a savory flavor.

6. Remove the skillet from the heat and transfer the soup to serving bowls.

7. Drizzle each serving with a little olive oil for added richness and flavor.

8. Garnish with finely sliced scallions (green onions) on top.

9. Serve the Butter Bean and Pea Skillet Soup hot and enjoy its comforting flavors.

Note: You can adjust the consistency of the soup by adding more stock if desired. Feel free to customize the recipe by adding other herbs or spices to suit your taste preferences.
