Yudofu

Yudofu, or hot tofu, is a simple and comforting Japanese dish made by gently simmering tofu in a flavorful broth.

Ingredients - Serves 4

Cut the tofu into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
In a large pot, add the water and kombu. Let the kombu soak for about 15 minutes to extract its flavor.
After 15 minutes, remove the kombu and bring the water to a boil.
Once boiling, add the soy sauce, mirin, and bonito flakes. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 5 minutes.
Using a fine mesh strainer, strain the broth to remove the bonito flakes.
Return the broth to the pot and add the tofu. Let it simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the tofu is heated through.
Serve the tofu and broth in bowls, garnished with the sliced green onions.
