1.
Pour the previously prepared dashi broth and kombu seaweed into a large pot, bring to a boil
2.
Add the mix of fresh or frozen mushrooms and seaweed that you have chopped. Cook for 8-10 minutes depending on the type of mushrooms.
3.
Season with fish sauce to taste.
4.
Add peeled shrimp and diced silken tofu. Cook for 2-3 minutes – the prawns are done very quickly.
5.
Reduce the heat so the soup doesn’t cook any more and strain the miso paste through a sieve. This must not be cooked anymore, as we would lose all the important health benefits of the fermentation.
6.
Set aside and serve.
7.
On the plate, sprinkle the soup with more light sesame seeds and sliced spring onions.
