Ingredients
- 6 scallions
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 Tbsp freshly grated ginger
- 1 Tbsp vegetable oil 15 mL
- 1 oz package sliced mushrooms 226 g
- 4 cups veggie broth 950 mL
- 2 Tbsp Kimchi Hot Sauce 30 g
- 1 medium daikon radish peeled and sliced into ¼ inch rounds
- 1 cup Lucky Foods Seoul Original Kimchi 150 g
- ½ oz package silken tofu cut into large cubes, 340 g
- soy sauce as needed
Instructions
- Saute: Thinly slice the scallions, separating the white and the green parts. Mince the garlic, and finely grate the ginger. Heat oil in a large skillet or pan over medium heat. Add the white parts of the scallions, garlic, ginger, and mushrooms. Cook, stirring often, until mushrooms sweat out their moisture and are soft about 8 minutes.
- Simmer: Add broth, hot sauce, and daikon radish. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook until radish is slightly softened (I like to leave a little crunch in the radish), about 10 minutes.
- Serve: Stir in kimchi and tofu. Taste and add soy sauce as needed, for saltiness. Ladle into serving bowls and top with the green parts of the scallions.
Notes
- Add miso for a savory punch of flavor, and stir in a spoonful of miso paste.
- A soft-boiled egg plopped into each serving bowl ups the protein content, making this soup even more satiating.
- Change up the mushrooms by using shiitake or portobello.
- Glass noodles, cooked separately and added before serving, add another fun texture to this soup.
- Tofu lovers can add extra protein to the whole package.
- Storage: Leftover soup can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
