How To Make Miso Soup With Seaweed
Whip up a miso soup with seaweed to feel warm during the cold season! This dish offers Japanese flavors with soft tofu for additional taste.
Ingredients
- 3 cups dashi soup stock
- 3 tbsp miso
- 5 oz soft tofu , packaged
- 1 tsp dried wakame seaweed
- ½ cup leeks , or green onions, chopped, or more
Instructions
-
Pour dashi soup stock into a pot and place it over high heat.
-
Once dashi stock comes to a boil, turn the heat down to low. Stir in and dissolve the miso.
-
Cut tofu into ¾-inch cubes and cut wakame seaweed into about ¾-inch square; then put them into the soup. Avoid crumbling the tofu by sliding it into the pot directly from the cutting board.
-
Turn off the heat once the tofu starts to move but before they start to float.
-
Serve in a soup bowl. Top with chopped onions.
Recipe Notes
- Use 3 cups of water if you use a dashi-added miso.
- Ingredients that cook fast (tofu, wakame seaweed, lettuce, and thinly sliced leeks) are added after the miso is dissolved into the dashi.
- Ingredients that cook slowly are cooked in dashi until they are soft, then miso is dissolved into the pot.
- Put some time in between each ingredient when cooking several ingredients with different textures.
