Wakame Soup

A Korean acquaintance taught me how to make this wakame soup. Stir-frying the wakame with garlic is the secret to its deliciousness! The story behind this recipe is that store-bought wakame soup is often too salty. After my Korean friend suggested stir-frying the wakame with sesame oil and garlic, this has been our go-to recipe at home. We no longer need store-bought wakame soup mix!
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Rehydrate the dried wakame in lukewarm water. Once rehydrated, squeeze out the excess water.
- 2
In a pot, add sesame oil and garlic paste, then quickly stir-fry the drained wakame.
- 3
Add 1 2/3 cups (400 ml) of water to the pot. Once it boils, add 2 teaspoons of chicken bouillon powder, 2 teaspoons of soy sauce, 1 1/4 inches of additional garlic paste, and a pinch of black pepper.
- 4
Add chili oil to taste. Finally, sprinkle green onions and white sesame seeds on top to finish. For children, omit the chili oil.
- 5
If you find it lacking in salt, feel free to add more soy sauce and bouillon powder.
- 6
Using fresh wakame makes it even more delicious.
