These Miso Soba Noodle Bowls with Spicy Tofu are filled with umami flavour and are the perfect vegetarian comfort food!

Miso is a fermented soybean paste that originates from Japan. It’s used to create flavour in a lot of Asian cuisine but is mostly recognized for being the main ingredient in miso soup. The overall taste of miso is also the reference point for “umami” – a flavour sensation in Japanese dishes.

Soba noodles are relatively healthy compared to regular pasta. They’re made of buckwheat, which is naturally gluten-free, and are lower in fat.
