Broth

Method

Preparing the Broth

  1. 1

    Combine Water and Dashi

    In a medium-sized saucepan, add 4 cups of water and 2 tablespoons of dashi powder. Stir gently to combine and bring to a simmer over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Add Miso Paste

    Once the broth is simmering, reduce the heat to low. In a small bowl, mix 3 tablespoons of miso paste with a ladleful of the hot broth until smooth, then return it to the saucepan. Stir well to combine.

Preparing the Ingredients

  1. 3

    Prepare Tofu

    Drain the firm tofu and cut it into small cubes, about ½ inch in size.

  2. 4

    Chop Green Onions

    Thinly slice the green onions (scallions), using both the white and green parts.

  3. 5

    Soak Seaweed

    If using dried wakame, soak it in water for about 5 minutes until it expands. Drain and chop into smaller pieces.

Final Assembly

  1. 6

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the cubed tofu and soaked seaweed to the simmering broth. Allow to heat for about 2-3 minutes, ensuring the tofu is warmed through.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Ladle the miso soup into bowls and garnish with sliced green onions. Serve hot and enjoy!
