呉汁 (Go-jiru) is a local dish that can be found in many parts of Japan. 呉 (Go) is a paste made by soaking soybeans in water and grinding them into a paste. Gojiru is made by adding Go to miso soup. Miso soup with Go made of edamame is called “Ao Gojiru” or “Edamame Gojiru.” It is sometimes eaten during the 報恩講 (Hōonkō = Jodo Shinshu Buddhist memorial service) ceremony.
It’s a type of miso soup that has go (ground up soybean) in it. It looks like the specific gojiru she’s eating contains udon noodles. In the region that I am from, we poured gojiru over rice.
