Mushroom and Miso Soup
A quiet, savoury soup built on mushrooms and light miso. Simple to make, gently warming, and deeply comforting — this is the kind of everyday dish that rewards patience rather than fuss.

Using lots of small pieces—like chicken wings—gives the water more surface area to work with, while a gentle simmer allows collagen to melt into the stock. The result is a rich, savoury liquid with real body, made quietly and without fuss.
