Miso Soup

So of course nobody liked this, except me and my brother who came over to eat. But it was soooooooo easy to make, I think it may be the easiest thing in the world to make. And since part of the difficulty of cooking is having the right ingredients on hand when that moment comes to make dinner, it helps that miso keeps indefinitely in the fridge (according to multiple websites). And you don't have to really measure.

3 T miso paste
3 oz. tofu, in 1/2 inch cubes
2 green onions, thinly sliced
sliced mushrooms
couple inches of konbu (dried kelp), cut into small slivers (it expands a lot), or hon dashi (some sort of fish powder, actually I think it might be a powdered form of konbu?)
4 c. water

Bring miso, konbu, and water to a boil, remove from heat. Add everything else.

Easy enough for you?
