Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 4 cups water

  • 1 (4 inch) piece dashi kombu (dried kelp)

  • ½ cup bonito flakes

  • 6 ounces tofu, cut into chunks

  • 1 teaspoon dried wakame

  • 3 tablespoons miso paste

  • ¼ cup chopped green onions

Directions

  1. Heat water in a large pot over low heat. Add kombu and cook until just simmering. Stir in bonito flakes, then remove dashi stock from the heat. Let dashi sit, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Strain and set aside.

  2. Heat 3 1/2 cups dashi in a pot over medium heat. Add tofu and wakame and stir to combine. Remove 1 cup warmed dashi to a small bowl and whisk in miso paste. Pour miso mixture back into the pot with remaining dashi. Stir until warmed through. Serve garnished with chopped green onions.
