Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons dried wakame seaweed
  • 1 1/2 cups vegetarian dashi or use vegetable broth or chicken broth
  • 1/3 cup cooked brown rice
  • 1/2 cup napa cabbage spinach or other leafy green vegetable, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup tofu cut into 1/2" cubes
  • 2 tablespoons julienned carrots
  • 1 tablespoon miso I used red miso
  • 1 egg lightly beaten
  • minced scallions for garnish

Instructions

  1. Soak wakame seaweed in water for 10 minutes. It will rehydrate to about 5x the original amount. Measure out 1/4 cup; reserve the rest for another batch.
  2. Bring dashi to a boil. Remove a few spoonfuls and mix with miso to dissolve it. Add rice, napa cabbage, tofu, carrots, and rehydrated wakame to dashi; cook 2-3 minutes until vegetables are just tender. Stir in miso mixture. Slowly drizzle in beaten egg, stirring as you go along. Ladle soup into serving bowl. Top with minced scallions.

Recipe Notes

You can also use a poached egg, or quartered hard boiled egg instead of the beaten egg.
