Ingredients

5 cups water or unsalted vegetable broth

2 scallions, white and light-green parts only, thinly sliced

1 garlic clove, thinly sliced

3 tablespoons light-colored miso

Bring the water to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add scallions, ginger, and garlic. Reduce heat; cover, and simmer 10 minutes.
