Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. In a large saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. Stir in 2 teaspoons of hondashi powder, followed by 1/4 cup of dried wakame seaweed and 1 cup of cubed tofu. Allow to return to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 3 minutes.
  2. Remove from heat. Scoop 1/4 cup of the hot broth into a separate bowl. Whisk in gluten-free miso paste until dissolved, then gently return to the pot.
