Miso is not the same as Dashi, though they are both used to make Miso soup. Dashi is a broth made from dried fermented tuna and dried sheets of seaweed and Miso is a paste made from fermented soybeans.
Is dashi a miso?
Dashi makes a scrumptious starting point for soups of all kinds, with the most notable being being miso, but this base is also a flavorful poaching liquid. Delicate fish and vegetables can be simmered in dashi for cooking and for serving, as can whole tofu filets.
