Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
  1. On medium heat, melt butter in a stock pot.
  2. When butter foams, add carrots in batches until they slightly brown and caramelize. Do not burn.
  3. Add remaining ingredients, except for ½ teaspoon of kosher salt and the miso.
  4. Cover with cold, filtered water. You will need approximately 7 ½ cups or enough to immerse the ingredients.
  5. Simmer gently for 45 minutes.
  6. Remove from heat and stir in miso and salt.
  7. Cool for 1 hour and strain through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth.
  8. Store in airtight containers in the refrigerator or freezer.

Notes

Skip the chiles if you like. Use dark brown or red miso if available or substitute with white miso. Salt is not usually added to stock but in this instance it will help keep the flavor from tasting flat.
