Equipment

  • Medium saucepan, 18cm/7 inches
  • Miso measuring whisk

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Tbsp Wakame Seaweed
  • 1 Tofu, 130g, 4.5oz
  • 3 Scallions
  • tsp Dashi powder, 5g
  • 3 cup Water, 720ml
  • 2 Tbsp Miso Paste, 36g, 1.3oz

Instructions
 

  1. Preparation: Cut tofu into cubes. Chop scallions and set aside.
  2. Bring to a boil: Put dried wakame seaweed, tofu, dashi powder, and water in a saucepan, and bring to a boil on medium heat.
  3. Simmer: Lower the heat and simmer for one minute.
  4. Add miso paste: Turn off the heat, add miso (use a miso measuring whisk if you have it), and stir gently until it dissolves.
  5. Add scallions: Add scallions to the soup.

Notes

  • Storage: 3 days in the fridge.
  • Always add miso paste after turning off the heat. Boiling miso will diminish its excellent miso flavor.
  • When adding miso paste to your soup, stir gently to avoid breaking the tofu.
  • If you find the soup too light, feel free to add more miso paste to enhance the flavor.
