Ingredients:

  • 4 cups (950 ml) Dashi broth (vegetable or fish-based)
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) Miso paste (white or red)
  • 1 block (150g) Firm tofu, cubed
  • 1 sheet Nori seaweed, cut into thin strips
  • 2 Green onions, thinly sliced

Instructions:

  1. Pour the dashi broth into a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Do not boil!
  2. In a small bowl, whisk a small amount of hot dashi broth with the miso paste to create a smooth slurry. This prevents clumping!
  3. Gently stir the miso slurry into the simmering dashi broth. Add the cubed tofu. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  4. Ladle the miso soup into bowls. Garnish with nori strips and sliced green onions. Serve immediately for the best flavor.
