Ingredients

8 cups water ½ cup white or light miso paste (gluten-free if preferred) 8 cloves garlic, finely grated 2 tablespoons fresh ginger, peeled and grated 1 tablespoon fresh horseradish root, peeled and grated 2 teaspoons avocado oil or coconut oil 2 tablespoons raw apple cider vinegar (with the “mother”) 1 teaspoon ground turmeric ½ teaspoon sea salt, or to taste Juice of 1 large lemon (about 2 tablespoons) Zest of ½ lemon (optional, for extra brightness) 1 scallion, thinly sliced (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Prepare the Flavor Base: Combine grated garlic, ginger, and horseradish with turmeric, vinegar, oil, and salt until a fragrant paste forms.
  2. Step 2: Heat the Broth Base: Bring 8 cups of water to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to a soft simmer.
  3. Step 3: Mix the Miso: Whisk miso paste with hot water until smooth and lump-free.
  4. Step 4: Combine and Infuse: Turn off the heat, whisk in the miso mixture, lemon juice, and zest until golden and aromatic.

Notes

Avoid boiling miso to preserve probiotics. For extra brightness, add a dash of lemon zest before serving. Pairs beautifully with light meals or a side of rice noodles.
