[quote=Anonymous][quote]OP here--re the wonton, pho and miso people, do you make it yourself or buy it in a package/can from a store, or order it from a restaurant?[/quote] not the PP, but I have a Japanese grandma and grew up with miso soup as my comfort food. I always have miso paste, dashi (basically fish bouillon), and wakame (the seaweed) around (make a run to the asian grocery store periodically). Making miso is literally just boiling some water, adding a scoop of miso paste and a scoop of dashi to make the broth. Then I can add the tofu, wakame, and green onions if I feel like it. It takes all of 10 minutes to prepare. For other types of noodle soups, I tend to keep asian noodles and soup bases around my house, as well as frozen wontons, fresh ginger, lemon grass, thai fish sauce, etc. So it's not exactly making it from scratch in that I have pre-made soup base, but I don't necessarily order it. Unless I am so incapacitated that I can't get up, then I send DH out for pho or ramen.[/quote]
