Miso Soup with Tofu (quick version)

Traditional Miso Soup is made with a base broth called dashi (a concentrated broth which is full of umami flavors, water, dried bonito fish flakes and kelp seaweed).

• Enoki mushrooms (optional)

DIRECTIONS:

3. Open box of Ocean’s Halo organic Miso Broth and pour into a saucepan.

4. Bring miso broth to a simmer and then add the rehydrated kelp seaweed, tofu, and optional Enoki mushrooms
