Autumn, it is early autumn, my most favourite season, but my kids are already caught  some cold, a good reason to start feasting on comfort food. My kids are huge fan of seaweed and tofu, so this soup are really suitable to evoke their appetite when they don’t have any desire to eat anything. It was just no-no the whole morning, I didn’t have much ingredient left in my kitchen, so thinking of food that they would voluntarily going to eat and with the minimum ingredient I got.

What I love about this soup regardless of the simplicity are, it is fresh with subtle sea flavour, light broth and just easy to enjoy it *I thought. My kids love this because the bland tofu are really contrast with the texture of chewy seaweed. This below are dried seaweed that I used, 1 tbs are enough to make a small pot of soup, but you can used it as much as you want, only if you add too much dried seaweed the broth would be intense with the sea flavour.

Alright then, lets welcome autumn.
