Miso!

I love Asian soup and noodles and stir fry and enjoyed sipping on succulent Japanese miso at a restaurant last night. But, I didn't like paying $2.99 for 6 ounces of substance that I'll pee out in less than 30 minutes. 

I went to Whole Foods--the Mecca for all hipster food--in Nashville and bought some red miso soy paste. It didn't seem difficult to make, but I have had incalculable and very recent and debilitating cooking disasters as of late that have stolen my confidence. So I was fearful.

BUT! Today, I had a bit of a fever and an "almost cold" and needed something soupy. I also don't have much food in my fridge cuz shopping just seems too hard right now.

So, 3ish cloves of garlic, 4 tbsp. of olive oil, 4ish cups of broccolini florets, 7 scallions diced to make those cool circle things, 4 oz. red miso soy paste, 4 tbsp. of Shoyu soy sauce later, I got this!:
