Ingredients
Instructions
- 1
In a medium pot, bring 4 cups of filtered water to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
- 2
While the water is heating, soak the dried wakame seaweed in a small bowl of warm water for about 5-10 minutes, until it expands and softens. Drain and chop into smaller pieces.
- 3
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the simmering water, cooking for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- 4
Stir in the sliced shiitake mushrooms and cook for another 3-4 minutes until they soften.
- 5
Add the cubed tofu and chopped wakame to the pot, stirring gently to combine.
- 6
In a small bowl, mix the miso paste with a ladleful of hot broth from the pot until smooth. This prevents lumps from forming when you add it to the soup.
- 7
Lower the heat and stir the miso mixture back into the soup. Be careful not to let the soup boil after adding the miso, as this can diminish its flavor and health benefits.
- 8
Allow everything to heat through for about 2-3 minutes.
- 9
Serve the soup hot, garnished with sliced green onions.
