One of the common myths many people have when it comes to miso soup is that it’s not vegan or vegetarian-friendly because dashi, Japanese stock, is included in the soup. They presume that dashi is only made with fish or seafood. And now that’s NOT TRUE. Japanese stock can be made with different ingredients. Three out of 6 types of dashi are completely vegan/vegetarian because it’s made with kombu (edible kelp), dried shiitake mushrooms, or a combination of both kombu and shiitake mushrooms....
