*This recipe was developed for 12 oz. and 17 oz. Zojirushi Stainless Steel Food Jars. Adjustments may be required for making this recipe in other Food Jar sizes.
*Please make sure not to overfill the food jar with ingredients, as ingredients will expand with cooking, and may cause the lid to burst.
1
Preheat the Zojirushi food jar by pouring boiling water (not included in the ingredients list). Close the lid and allow to preheat.
2
Set aside a pinch of green onion for garnish. Place remaining green onions into a sauce pan.
3
Add tofu and dashi to the sauce pan, bring to a simmer and cook for approximately 2 minutes.
4
Place the miso paste in a bowl, add 1/4 cup of soup from the sauce pan and whisk until smooth, then pour the mixture back into the sauce pan. This will ensure that miso doesn’t clump together while cooking.
5
Just before the soup returns to a simmer, turn off the heat.
6
Discard hot water from the food jar and place dried wakame inside the jar.
7
Fill with prepared soup from step 5 up until 1 cm below the ridge and close lid.
8
Allow soup to set for a minimum of 5 minutes and up to 6 hours. Stir and garnish with the remaining green onions before you eat.

Enjoy!
