MISO SOUP WITH TOFU AND SEAWEED
Steps:
- For the dashi stock: Combine the cold water and kombu in a medium pot. Place the pot over medium heat; as the water comes to a simmer, you'll see tiny bubbles start to form on the bottom of the pot. Do not let the water come to a boil; it should remain at a low simmer. Remove the kombu.
- Once the water starts to simmer gently, sprinkle in the bonito flakes. Let the flakes steep without stirring for 1 to 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and strain the mixture through a cheesecloth-lined sieve into another medium pot. You should have about 4 cups of dashi stock.
- For the miso soup: To reconstitute the wakame seaweed, place 1 cup hot water in a medium bowl and sprinkle in the wakame; let it soak for about 2 minutes. Rinse the wakame under cold water, squeeze out the water with your hands and then chop the wakame.
- Heat the dashi stock over medium-low heat until just under a simmer. Add the wakame and allow to cook and intermingle for about 5 minutes.
- Submerge a small sieve into the saucepan until the rim is just above the stock. Add 1/4 cup of the miso to the sieve and use a wooden spoon to work the miso through the sieve into the soup; this will prevent lumps from forming. Stir well and taste the soup -- if it's not salty enough, add additional miso.
- Add the tofu and scallions and let them cook in the broth just until warmed through, about 1 minute.
TOFU SOUP RECIPE WITH WAKAME SEAWEED
Wakame seaweed is a very common ingredient found in Japanese soups, especially the famous miso soup. Here, it brings the fresh taste of the ocean to this tofu soup as well as provide a good dose of iodine.Other healthy ingredients such as fresh carrot, leek, shiitake mushrooms and silken tofu makes this a hearty and healthy dish. The recipe uses chicken stock but you can replace it with vegetable stock if you want to make this a vegetarian soup dish. Make sure you choose a stock that is light and clear. Removing silken tofu from its box can be tricky. Score the sides of the plastic sheet top with a knife. Lift the sheet up. Cover the top of the box with a flat plate and invert. Press the bottom of the box gently to dislodge the tofu.

MISO SOUP WITH TOFU AND WAKAME
I have been enjoying Miso Soup at Japanese restaurants for years, and finally decided to research and make it at home. A few notes that may be helpful to some - it was to me as I am just beginning to learn more about Asian cooking...wakame is a sea vegetable, or edible seaweed. You can substitute thinly sliced Chinese mushrooms for the wakame if you like. Dashi is a class of soup and cooking stocks considered fundamental to Japanese cooking. The dashi was hard for me to find (I am in the deep south) you can substitute a clear broth if needed. Dashida beef flavored, clam flavored or anchovy flavored soup stock for making Korean soups, I have found is also a suitable substitute and easier for me to find where I am.
