Gather all the ingredients.
Trim the roots off the shimeji mushrooms and wash them thoroughly. Break them into smaller, bite-sized clusters.
Pour the dashi into a stovetop pot and bring it to a soft boil. Once boiling, add the cleaned shimeji mushrooms and cook for 2-3 minutes.
Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the miso paste. For a smooth mix, place the miso in a strainer and use chopsticks or a spoon to dissolve it into the dashi.
Serve the miso soup in a bowl, garnished with freshly chopped green onions.
