An easy miso soup and tofu recipe that only takes 15 minutes to put together. Hearty, savory, and umami-filled, this soup can warm you from the inside out.
Soak the wakame seaweed in room temperature water for 10 minutes. Remove from water and squeeze out excess liquid.
Cut the soft tofu into cubes and set aside for later.
Add dashi granules/powder to water, stir and bring water to a boil. Add the seaweed and soft tofu once the water boils and let it cook for 2-3 minutes before turning off the heat.
After turning off heat, wait for 2-3 minutes before adding miso paste to the water and stir until it dissolves (see notes). Optional step: For a smoother soup, add miso paste to a small sieve and lower it into the water. Stir inside the sieve so the miso dissolves.
Garnish with green onions and enjoy!
