Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon Dashi granules
  • 2 cups Water
  • 2 tablespoons Miso paste
  • 150 grams Silken tofu
  • 1 tablespoon Dried wakame seaweed
  • 1 stalk Green onions(optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil.

  2. 2

    Add the dashi granules and stir until dissolved.

  3. 3

    Reduce heat to low and add the dried wakame seaweed, letting it rehydrate for 2 minutes.

  4. 4

    Cut the silken tofu into small 1/2-inch cubes and gently add them to the broth.

  5. 5

    Place the miso paste in a small bowl. Ladle about 1/4 cup of the hot broth into the bowl and whisk until the paste is smooth and lump-free.

  6. 6

    Pour the miso mixture back into the saucepan. Stir gently to combine.

  7. 7

    Turn off the heat immediately. Do not let the soup boil after adding the miso, as it destroys the flavor and nutrients.

  8. 8

    Garnish with thinly sliced green onions and serve hot.
