For years, I've been relying on this savory, warm drink when I need something fortifying but don't have the time or energy to make a pot of soup. The combination of miso, ginger, garlic and scallion clears my head in an instant and can stop a cold in its tracks.



Miso Brew




Makes 1 cup



Ingredients




  • 2-3 tsp. unpasteurized miso



  • 1-inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled



  • 1 garlic clove, pressed



  • 1 cup boiling water



  • 1 scallion, thinly sliced



  • Pinch of cayenne pepper






Place the unpasteurized miso in a mug. Finely grate the ginger and squeeze the juice (about 1 tsp.) into the mug. Add garlic and boiling water and stir to dissolve miso. Add more miso to taste and stir in scallion and cayenne pepper. Serve hot.
