Seaweed and Tofu Soup

Pour 4 cups of water into the pot. Bring the water to a boil.

Cut the tofu into bite-sized cubes. Add the tofu to the boiling water.

Drain the rehydrated seaweed and add it to the pot along with the soaking liquid. Stir gently.

Add soy sauce to the soup and stir. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Thinly slice green onions. Add green onions to the soup and simmer for another minute.
