💡 Method reminders
- •Store miso soup in shallow portions so reheating stays even the next day.
- •Use the method that matches the texture you want back from miso soup.
- •Stop reheating as soon as the center is hot so miso soup does not dry out.
❌ Common misses for this method
- •Very high heat from the start if miso soup is dense or sauce-heavy
- •Overcrowded pans or baskets that trap steam around miso soup
- •Repeated reheats of the same portion
