Miso Soup with Pork Meatballs
Today's Miso Soup is made with pork meatballs and nappa cabbage. This is a hearty Miso Soup that can easily serve as a main course alongside steamed rice. There's no need to make Dashi for this miso soup as the ground pork provides enough umami savory flavor. Hope you like it!
