Nori Tamago Sumashijiru (Japanese Clear Soup with Seaweed and Egg)
Author: 
Recipe type: Soup
 
Ingredients
  • 5 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon dried dashi powder (see recipe index for homemade dashi)
  • 1 tablespoon shoyu (soy sauce)
  • 2 sheets yakinori or sushi nori
  • 1 egg beaten
Instructions
  1. )  Combine water in a pot and bring to boil, then reduce to medium heat.
  2. )  Tear yakinori into small pieces.  I used kitchen shears to cut the seaweed.  Add this to the pot. I often make this soup when I have yakinori (or even the teriyaki flavored nori) that has gone stale. It's a good way to use nori that would otherwise go to waste.
  3. )  Add dashi and shoyu to the soup and mix.
  4. )  Crack 1 egg in a small bowl and beat lightly.  Add this to the soup, and gently stir the egg with chopsticks until the egg cooks.
