Turnips often get a bad reputation, but with a little vegan dashi, some simmer love, and a hit of acid, they become a sumptuous, gently cleansing, and almost decadent dish.

1. Scrub and cut the turnips into cubes. 2. Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a pot. 3. Add 2 tablespoons of tamari, 1 teaspoon of sea salt, 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon of red miso, and 1 sheet of kombu seaweed to the boiling water. 4. Reduce heat to a low simmer and let the broth simmer for 15-20 minutes to deepen the flavor. 5. Add the cubed turnips to the broth and bring it back to a boil. 6. Lower the heat again to a simmer and cook for another 20-25 minutes, or until the turnips are tender enough to slice with a fork. 7. Strain the turnips from the broth (you can save the broth for dipping or storing the turnips as it's packed with minerals). 8. Garnish the strained turnips with sesame seeds, sliced scallions, and 2 tablespoons of fresh rice vinegar.
