Ingredients

tofu	1/2 block
Miso	4 tablespoons (more or less, according to taste)
Leek	1/2 (a whole scallion may also be used)
dashi	3 cups

Chop the leek and cut the tofu into small cubes.

Heat the dashi and mix in a little miso at a time. (Don't use 4 tablespoons all at once; it could be too much. You should add more only if the taste is still too weak.)

Add tofu and turn off the heat as soon as the stock comes to a boil. Serve in bowls, topped with chopped leek.

Rice and miso soup - your Japanese meal is ready!
