This past week, Em and I made this soup. While not either of our favorites, it had a lot of interesting stuff going on and was pretty good.I couldn't find pure miso paste (who would have thought Trader Joe's wouldn't carry it) so we ended up with miso soup mix ... which was a good things since Em saw that several people had commented that the soup portion was a bit bland. Our soup tasted just like the miso soup you get in a Japanese restaurant. The dumplings, arguably the best part, were very good. Em would have preferred less additions to the sweet potatoes but I thought it was a nice balance. The only downside was the extra prep time (compared to the tiny amount of time it took for everything else).
All in all, it was a good recipe that we might try again with some variations (plus we have 3 more packets of miso-soup mix so we can experiment).
