Ingredients

  • 1 ½ pounds / 675g sweet potato (about 2-3 large) cubed
  • 1 medium / 175g yellow onion
  • 2 stalks / 100g celery
  • 2 large / 175g carrots
  • 2 cloves / 10g garlic
  • 2 tablespoons / 30ml neutral oil
  • 2 teaspoons / 4g ground ginger
  • 3 cups / 710ml vegetable broth
  • 4 tablespoons / 60g miso paste (white or yellow)
  • ½ teaspoon / 3g coarse salt
  • 1 teaspoon / 2g ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Peel and cube the sweet potato. The smaller you cut them the faster they will cook.
  • Dice the onion and celery finely. Peel and dice the carrot. Peel and mince the garlic.
  • In a large, heavy bottomed pot, heat the oil over medium heat.
  • Add the onion, celery, carrot, and garlic. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring regularly, until the onion starts to get translucent.
  • Add the sweet potato, ground ginger, and broth plus 1 cup/240ml water.
  • Cover and cook over medium-low heat for 30-40 minutes until all the vegetables are extremely soft.
  • Add the miso paste, salt, and pepper.
  • Remove from the heat and use an immersion blender to pulse everything until smooth. Alternatively, allow to cool slightly and then use a regular blender.
  • Taste and adjust the salt to preference.
