Instructions
Mix the ground chicken, white parts of the green onions, miso, and ginger in a large bowl to make a sticky meat paste.
With wet hands, roll the meat paste into golf ball-sized meatballs. Set aside.
In the slow cooker, put cabbage on the bottom until the slow cooker is about 1/3 full. Then add the onion, daikon, carrot, mushrooms, and meatballs.
Pour your broth into the slow cooker until the solid ingredients are just covered by liquid.
Set the slow cooker to low for 6 to 8 hours.
Add the fried tofu pieces and the green parts of the green onion, and let the soup simmer for another 5 minutes.
Stir in the soy sauce, sake, and mirin.
Serve hot and, if you like, with rice or noodles.
