2 tablespoons sesame or safflower oil

1 cup yellow onion (1 medium) -- sliced diagonally

8 cups water

3 cups thinly sliced green cabbage

2 cups chopped kale or bok choy leaves (optional)

and celery and saute, stirring often, until lightly browned, about 10 minutes.

Add carrots and continue sauteing 5-10 minutes more, stirring to brown carrots.

until carrots are just tender, about 10-15 minutes.

until cabbage is tender. Turn off heat.

In a small bowl, combine miso with enough of the hot soup broth to make a thin

paste. Stir into soup.

Serve garnished with chopped green onions.

GINGER JUICE - Finely grate a small piece of ginger until you have about 1

teaspoon. Place in a garlic press or in the palm of your hand, and squeeze

tightly, catching the juice in a container.
