]]> 3167 1 60 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/208/60.jpg Add konbu Break off a 4 to 6-inch piece of konbu and add it to the water.

]]> 3168 2 67 Tip Konbu—also known as sea cabbage or kelp—is available at most health food stores.

]]> 3169 3 72 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/208/72.jpg Simmer & remove Simmer the konbu for 15 minutes, then remove it from the water and throw it away.

]]> 3170 4 80 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/208/80.jpg Add bonito Add bonito flakes to the pot and simmer on medium-low heat for 5 minutes. If you prefer a more intense fish flavor, steep the flakes for 10, 15, or even 20 minutes—the longer you steep them, the stronger the flavor.

]]> 3175 9 123 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/208/123.jpg Pour broth Once the miso paste is dissolved, pour the broth back in the pot and stir.

]]> 3176 10 129 Tip Miso paste will keep in the fridge for nearly a year; bonito flakes, wakame, and konbu will last indefinitely in the cupboard.

]]> 3177 11 137 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/208/137.jpg Add scallions Keeping the heat on low, add the chopped scallions and simmer for a final 5 minutes. Ahhh, miso.
