Ingredients
Scale
- 250 ml (1 cup) dashi
- 5 pieces of wakame
- A few 1 cm cubes of medium-firm tofu
- 1 tablespoon (about 15 ml) miso paste (either white, red, or a mixture)
Directions
- Heat the dashi to a light simmer.
- While this is heating, lay out your bowl and place the wakame and tofu in the bottom.
- When the dashi simmers, take a ladle or so of liquid aside and mix it with the miso paste.
- Remove the pot of dashi from the stove and stir in the miso mixture.
- Ladle the prepared soup into the bowl and serve.
Notes
Some prefer less miso, some prefer more. The quantity given results in the moderately-salty type popular in restaurants before meals.
Do not permit the miso to boil; doing so alters the flavour.
