Here is a delicious miso soup recipe with easy to find simple ingredients - works every time:

soak shittake mushoom (4-6 small dried caps) and seaweed (kombu or other) in bowl with hot water
chef's wok over gas flame - preheat
add olive oil
add, in this order, 30 seconds to one minute between:
bias cut sliced carrot
hot red chili peppers, broken into pieces
onion cut in chunks, separated
celery stalks cut on the bias
cabbage wedge cut into chunks, separated
any wild greens you might have in the garden
don't overcook, stop before vegetables get limp and when greens are bright green
add soaked seaweed & shitttake & soaking liquid
let cool until very warm then add large tablespoon of hatcho miso & dissolve it into the liquid (hatcho has the most probiotics, the least water, is least expensive and has plenty of flavor - next in line is barley miso)
don't add any other ingredients, other oils, mirin, vinegar or sauces or salt (the miso has plenty)

serve with hot boiled rice (add some hot crushed red pepper, ume or brown rice vinegar as condiments), stir fried little dried fish (sardines, from asian grocery), tempeh or tofu (cook with brown rice vinegar, hot red pepper, a little salt, tamari soy sauce or fermented black beans)

enjoy
