No Meat Meals: Green Tea Shiitake Miso Soup

Ken Carlson/Waterbury Publications Inc.

The slow cooker uses gentle, moist heat, which is the ideal way to extract the tea’s healing compounds and infuse it into the dish. Find Chinese black vinegar in Asian grocery stores; it has a deep flavor like balsamic.

Directions: 

Put broth, vinegar, and miso paste in slow cooker and whisk well. Remove tags from tea bags and tuck bags into broth mixture. Add mushrooms, kale, scallions, and garlic; toss with tongs until vegetables are coated.

Cover and cook on low for 2 to 2 1⁄2 hours, until mushrooms and kale are tender. Discard tea bags.

Spoon into bowls. Drizzle each serving with 1 tsp sesame oil and sprinkle each with 1 tbsp cilantro.
