Instructions
Prepare the Broth
Bring water or dashi stock to a gentle simmer in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add dried wakame and let it rehydrate for 2 minutes while the water heats up.
Add Proteins
Add silken tofu cubes and edamame to the simmering broth. Cook gently for 3 to 4 minutes being careful not to stir too aggressively as silken tofu breaks apart easily.
Dissolve the Miso
Remove pot from heat or reduce to lowest setting. Place miso paste in a small bowl and ladle some hot broth over it then whisk until completely smooth before stirring back into the pot. Never boil miso as it destroys its beneficial probiotics.
Serve Immediately
Ladle soup carefully into bowls ensuring each serving gets plenty of tofu and edamame. Top with sliced green onions and serve right away for the best flavor and texture.
