Ingredients

Instructions

  1. PREPARE THE SHRIMP

    Rinse the shrimp thoroughly under cold running water. Pat them completely dry with paper towels to remove any moisture. Check for any remaining shells or veins and remove them if necessary. Place the shrimp in a bowl and season lightly with salt and pepper. Toss the shrimp gently to ensure they are evenly coated.

    Tip: Drying the shrimp well helps prevent them from releasing too much water during cooking, ensuring they stay tender and flavorful.
  1. PREPARE THE ZUCCHINI NOODLES

    Wash the zucchinis under running water and dry them with a clean towel. Use a spiralizer to create long, even noodles. Place the zucchini noodles on a paper towel and pat them gently to remove excess moisture. Set them aside while you prepare the soup.

    Tip: Removing moisture from the zucchini noodles prevents them from becoming soggy when added to the soup.
  1. MAKE THE SOUP BASE

    In a large soup pot, pour the chicken or vegetable broth and bring it to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Add the white miso paste to the broth and whisk until it dissolves completely, ensuring no lumps remain. Then, pour in the coconut milk and stir well to combine the flavors. Let the soup base simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

    Tip: Avoid boiling the soup base, as it can break the delicate miso flavor and the coconut milk’s creaminess.
  1. COOK THE SHRIMP

    Once the soup base is ready, gently add the shrimp to the pot. Stir them lightly to ensure they are submerged in the soup. Cook for about 3-4 minutes or until the shrimp turns pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the pot with a slotted spoon and set them aside temporarily.

    Tip: Do not overcook the shrimp, as they can become rubbery; remove them as soon as they are cooked.
  1. ADD THE ZUCCHINI NOODLES

    Lower the heat to medium-low and carefully add the zucchini noodles to the soup. Stir gently to incorporate the noodles into the soup base. Let them cook for 2-3 minutes until they are slightly tender but still have a bit of crunch.

    Tip: Add the zucchini noodles at the end to prevent them from becoming overly soft and losing their texture.
  1. ASSEMBLE AND SERVE

    Ladle the soup into serving bowls, ensuring each bowl gets an even portion of zucchini noodles and broth. Divide the cooked shrimp among the bowls, placing them on the noodles. Garnish each bowl with chopped green onions for added flavor and freshness. Serve immediately.

    Tip: Serve the soup hot and encourage diners to stir the ingredients before eating to enjoy the full blend of flavors.
