  • Drizzle of olive oil (or lemon juice)
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • 3/4 teaspoon sumac (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt-free seasoning (or salt to taste)
  • 3 scallions (thinly sliced (white and light green parts))
  • 1/2 cup chopped cilantro (or parsley, mint, or basil)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 1/2 cup unsalted peanuts (roughly chopped (optional))
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons white miso (or mellow miso)
  • 1 tablespoon tamari (or soy sauce preferably reduced sodium)
  • 3 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 1/2 inches ginger (minced or grated)
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup (or date syrup to taste)
  • 8 ounces soba noodles (or vermicelli noodles, quinoa, farro, or kamut)

Instructions

  1. Begin by washing and chopping all your vegetables. Ensure that your kale is well-rinsed and remove any tough stems. Chop the red cabbage into thin slices.
  2. In a pot of boiling water, add the soba noodles. Cook according to package instructions until tender but still firm. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop cooking.
  3. In a saucepan, bring water to a boil. Add the frozen edamame and cook for about 5 minutes until heated through. Drain and set aside.
  4. In a small bowl, combine white miso, tamari, rice vinegar, minced garlic, ginger, and maple syrup. Whisk until smooth.
  5. In a large mixing bowl, combine chopped kale, red cabbage, cooked edamame, scallions, cilantro, sesame seeds, and peanuts if using. Drizzle with olive oil or lemon juice. Toss gently.
  6. Divide cooked soba noodles among serving bowls. Top each bowl with the vegetable mixture and drizzle with miso sauce just before serving. Enjoy your vibrant Miso Bowl!
