seasonal miso noodle soup

the most exciting part about this recipe is that it's not really a recipe, but instead just a basic guideline. what's great about soup season is that there are all sorts of root vegetables and leafy greens available, that any number of combinations can end up as a great soup base. here we took advantage of everything in our farm fridge: watermelon radishes, daikon radishes, carrots, kale, oyster mushrooms, eggs, and garlic. needless to say, this warmed our hearts on a cold fall day.
