Quantities are auto-calculated from the original recipe as a guide. Items without numbers (e.g. “to taste”) are not changed.
Method 5 steps
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.
