overview
- effort: low
- time: 15 minutes
- serves: 2-4 people
notes
- Serve with grilled salmon and rice.
- Hondashi is a fish broth base. For a vegan alternative, acquire some kombu and boil for 20 minutes to make kombu dashi.
- If you’re not sure what miso paste to get, I recommend Hikari red or low-sodium miso paste to start with.
- Silken tofu tastes the best imo, but is harder to work with. Choose firm/extra-firm tofu if you prefer more well-defined cubes.
