Chicken, Tarragon & Miso Consommé / Broth Recipe

The first time I tasted miso and tarragon together, I immediately thought of roast chicken. There was something about the umami and herb combination conjures up flavours of roast dinners, which was the inspiration behind this warming broth. Familiar flavours but with a twist of miso for depth and nutrition.

This recipe is hardly a recipe. just add your leftover roast meats and some tarragon for a clean and nourishing broth that tastes like you have been simmering this for hours, but does in fact only take 10 minutes. Super speedy lunchtime snack, add a handful of noodles for more body.

Choose unpasteurised miso here for more depth and nutrition.

IngredientsUSMetric

• 500ml chicken stock alternative, use fresh water
• 1½ Tbsp White miso paste
• 1½ Tbsp Red miso paste
• 150g cooked chicken breast or thigh meat sliced into bite size pieces
• 2 tbsp tarragon leaves roughly chopped (avoid the stem)
• 1 spring onion chopped
• 1 sprinkle sesame seeds

Instructions

1. Boil 500ml of chicken stock or hot water.
2. Add the chicken pieces and the tarragon to the hot liquid.
3. Ladle a cup of the stock into a small bowl and stir in the two types of miso paste, until smooth. Lower the heat to a low simmer and pour the miso into the pot and stir again.
4. Simmer for 1 minute before serving into 2 bowls.
5. Add freshly chopped spring onions and sesame seeds to serve (optional).

Notes

You need a sieve and some kitchen paper or clean tea towel to pass the dashi.

If you leave the kombu in boiling water for too long, it can make the dashi slimy and bitter-tasting

The hydrated kombu can be used as a garnish. Simply cut them into thin slices and add them to noodle soups or on top of plain rice.
