Miso Soup with Vegetable Stock and Tofu

  • Number of Servings: 4
Ingredients
1/3 ounce kelp (2-3 squares)4 c vegetable stock3 large dry woodear mushrooms, wiped clean2 tsp soy sauce3 Tbsp white or yellow miso paste1 Tbsp brown miso paste1/4 c finely sliced scallions4 ounces firm tofu cut into 1/2 in squares
Directions
In a saucepan combine the kelp and vegetable stock and heat over medium heat almost to the boiling point. Remove the kelp just before the mixture comes to a boil and discard.

Remove from the heat and skim any foam off that rises to the surface. Let stand for 2 minutes. Strain through a fine mesh strainer into saucepan. Keep warm over low heat.

Add the mushrooms and soy sauce to the dashi broth and steep until mushrooms are tender. This should take about 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon, and when cool enough to handle, slice thinly. Return to the broth. Add the miso paste and cook over low heat, stirring to dissolve. Add the scallions and tofu and cook until warmed through (about 3 minutes).

Serve immediately and enjoy!!
