This is yummy. I never made anything with miso before and of course the local grocery store didn't have any. When I looked for substitutes, nothing sounded like a very good substitution. I decided I needed to find the real thing. Interesting stuff. Reminded me of vegemite. I only used one pound of shrimp because it's so expensive and could only find the really little ones already cooked so added at the end and heated through.

Have had a terrible cold, fever and sore throat combined for five days. I read this recipe and it sounded so good that I just had to make it up! I did add 3 cloves garlic, lotus roots and pea pods from the garden. This was fantastic. It soothed the throat, real comfort food. Thanks for posting this recipe. I will be making this on a regular basis!

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
