Hotate Miso Soup is a comforting and flavorful Japanese soup that features scallops as the main ingredient. To make this soup, you will need fresh hotate (scallops), miso paste, dashi stock, tofu, green onions, and seaweed. Start by preparing the dashi stock according to the instructions on the package. Bring the dashi stock to a simmer and add the sliced tofu and scallops. Cook for a few minutes until the scallops are cooked through. In a separate bowl, dissolve the miso paste in a small amount of hot water and add it to the soup. Stir well to combine. Be careful not to boil the miso soup, as it can affect the flavor. Garnish the Hotate Miso Soup with chopped green onions and seaweed before serving. The combination of the umami-rich miso broth and the tender scallops creates a comforting and satisfying soup.
