How to Prepare Shiitake, Tofu, and Mustard Greens Soup [Vegan]

  1. Heat oil in large saucepan over medium-high heat until shimmering. Stir in onion and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook until softened and lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in ginger and garlic and cook until lightly browned, about 2 minutes.
  2. Stir in broth, water, reserved mushroom stems, dried mushrooms, and soy sauce and bring to boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until flavors meld, about 1 hour.
  3. Strain broth through fine-mesh strainer set over large bowl, pressing on solids to extract as much broth as possible; discard solids. Wipe saucepan clean with paper towels and return strained broth to saucepan.
  4. Stir in sliced mushrooms, tofu, mustard greens, and vinegar and cook until mushrooms and tofu are warmed through and greens are wilted, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle individual portions with scallions and drizzle with chili oil, if using. Serve.
