Miso shiru is one of the very traditional staples in the Japanese diet. It is also common to add different ingredients to the basic soup, depending on what you have in hand. For example, you could add tofu pieces, or a vegetable such as carrot, daikon (large white radish also known as 'mooli'), aubergine, yam, potato, leek or spinach. For meat, try a little pork or shredded chicken. Some Japanese cooks add abura-age (deep fried tofu pouches) too.
Look at 'A bit more effort' Recipe 1 'Buta Jiru' (Miso soup with pork and vegetables) for such a more filling soup.
