Ingredients:
-
300g natural tofu, cut into small cubes
-
4 tablespoons soy sauce (tamari) for marinating
-
2 spring onions, cut into rings
-
3 tbsp black sesame seeds, roasted
-
A large piece of fresh ginger root (approx. 20g), finely chopped
-
2 carrots (approx. 200g), cut into sticks or grated
-
200g white radish (or radishes), cut into sticks or grated
-
9 button mushrooms (or shiitake mushrooms), sliced
-
2 liters of water
-
2 tbsp instant wakame seaweed (or a piece of crumbled wakame seaweed)
-
50g rice noodles
-
50-60g dark miso paste
-
1 splash of lemon juice
-
Spring onions, roasted sesame seeds, parsley or coriander greens for garnish
Preparation:
-
Marinate tofu cubes in soy sauce and let sit for 20 minutes. Alternatively: Spread miso paste on a whole block of tofu, let it sit in the fridge for 2 days, wipe off the miso paste and cut the tofu into cubes.
-
Cut spring onions into rings and roast black sesame seeds.
-
Chop ginger finely. Finely chop the carrots and radishes and cut the mushrooms into slices.
-
Bring 2 liters of water to the boil. Add chopped vegetables, ginger, wakame seaweed and rice noodles, cook for 8 minutes. Skim off a cup of soup stock, dissolve the miso paste in it and stir it back into the soup.
-
Season with lemon juice and serve garnished with spring onions, roasted sesame seeds and parsley or coriander.
Variant:
Leftover cooked rice or pearl barley can also be used instead of rice noodles. 🍜
For a different protein supply, a raw or boiled egg can be added to the soup instead of tofu - then let the raw egg steep in the hot soup for a moment until the egg white turns white. 🥚
Have fun trying it out and Bon Appétit! 😋💚👩🍳
