Remnants of Summer VI: Miso Soup with Kombu, Broccoli & Cauliflower And Swiss Chard with Shallots & Garbanzo Beans

Comfort food, as the daughter of the Caya house knows it to be.

This stuff is liquid healing...soothing, settling, filling. Miso was a common kind of broth for me growing up, used for minimalistic healing soups when sick, in heartier vegetarian soups for dinner, and as flavorful components to other sauces and gravies my mom made.

Chard on the side is a great green, high in antioxidants with blood-sugar regulation properties! It's a yummy summer plant easily whipped up in five minutes. Add some olive oil, shallots, and savory garbanzo beans, and you're away.

Not my mother's miso soup recipe, but I've done that one. I'll have to post it as some point...Caya 2012.
