Step-by-Step Instructions
01
Quickly rinse the mushrooms to remove any dirt, then pat them dry.
02
Slice the mushrooms into pieces about 5 mm thick so they cook evenly.
03
Pour the water into a small saucepan. Add the mushrooms and dashi stock granules, then bring to a gentle simmer over low heat.
04
If using tofu, cut it into small cubes. Thinly slice the green onion.
05
When the broth is hot and the mushrooms are tender, add the tofu and most of the green onion. Heat gently without letting the soup boil hard.
