Today’s miso soup is made with store-bought frozen Gyoza and fresh lettuce. It is seriously easy to make, and you don’t even need to cut anything at all. Choose frozen Gyoza dumplings of your choice, chicken, pork, or vegetable, from super markets, throw them in the soup along with lettuce leaves, and done! No compromise on the taste either. Add chili oil in the end if you like it a little spicy. Hope you like it!

We used Dashi with easy Dashi packet here, but you can use any type of Dashi, Katsuobushi bonito flakes and Kombu sea kelp. Please check Back to Basics: How to Make Dashi to learn more about different types of Dashi.

    Looks good. I have made this before with Napa cabbage or Chingensai instead of lettuce.
