Tofu and Wakame Miso Soup
Tofu and wakame miso soup is another good miso soup. It seems that many Japanese restaurants in North America have tofu and wakame miso soup on their menus. Wakame is kelp (seaweed). You can usually find wakame in a dried form at your local Asian grocery store.
Ingredients:
1 cup dashi
1 serving tofu (cubed)
1/2 teaspoon wakame
1 tablespoon miso
1 green onion (chopped)
Directions:
1. Bring the dashi, tofu and wakame to a boil in a small sauce pan.
2. Remove from heat.
3. Dissolve the miso with some of the heated dashi in a separate bowl. (We do not want to boil the miso as it will not taste as good.)
4. Add the miso back to the soup.
5. Pour the soup into a bowl and top with green onion.

This is exactly the way I learned to make it from my japanese mother, my oka-san. It's delicious ("oishii")!!!
Looks great and it's so cold here, I think I'll whip some up!
I have to confess - I've been making this soup from instant soup packets that I get from the Japanese food mart. From scratch looks so much more delicious, though. AND I've got all the ingredients on hand (well, my dashi is from granules but it will do). I'll have to give this one a try, definitely.

Beautiful picture!!!!! I'm lusting after that soup now.
Your miso soup looks so good and delicious. :)
I think the miso looks great when it clouds up in the soup.
I used to make my dashi with the instant granules as well. But then I tries making it from scratch. It tastes great and it is really easy. You can make a enough on the weekend to last all week. If you do not use a lot of dashi you could freeze it in individual portions.
