Miso Green Tea and Ginger Tofu Soup


Instead of regular miso soup or heartier and thicker vegetable-blended soups, this recipe is a broth-based soup with vegetables, tofu and unique flavours - ginger and green tea!

I spiralized the courgette to make noodles, using blade C on my spiralizer. Chopped or julienne courgette will also be fine but the noodles are different.
