Steg för steg

1
Add the water and kombu to a medium pot or donabe (Japanese clay pot).
2
Let the kombu soak in the water for at least 10 minutes, or up to 30 minutes, to extract flavor.
Cirka 10 min
Kockens tips: Soaking longer creates a more flavorful dashi.
3
While the kombu soaks, prepare the dipping sauce by combining the soy sauce, mirin, and rice vinegar in a small bowl.
Cirka 2 min
4
Gently heat the kombu and water over medium-low heat. Do not let it boil.
Cirka 5 min
Kockens tips: Boiling kombu can make the dashi bitter.
5
Just before the water reaches a boil and small bubbles appear around the edges, remove the kombu from the pot.
Cirka 1 min
Kockens tips: You can reserve the kombu to make a second, weaker dashi or finely chop it and add to other dishes.
6
Carefully add the tofu cubes to the kombu dashi.
Cirka 1 min
7
Simmer the tofu gently for 5-7 minutes, allowing it to warm through without boiling vigorously.
Cirka 7 min
Kockens tips: The goal is to gently warm the tofu, not cook it further.
8
Serve the warm yudofu immediately in individual bowls with a portion of the dipping sauce on the side.
9
Garnish with sliced scallion and a sprinkle of shichimi togarashi, if desired.
