A refreshing cold soup with deep umami flavor from tuna sauce and blanched kelp, perfectly eliminating any fishy odor by briefly scalding the soaked kelp for just 10 seconds.

Cooking tips
- Do not use soaked kelp directly, as it may develop a fishy smell in cold soup; always blanch it in boiling water for 10 seconds and rinse under cold water before using.
- Use clear, golden-hued tuna sauce rather than darker ones to keep the cold soup broth clear and clean.
- Maintain a ratio of about 1.5 tablespoons of tuna sauce per cup of water to ensure the seasoning remains balanced even as ice melts.
Recommended for
- Those looking for a refreshing, tangy-sweet soup to stimulate appetite during summer.
- People hesitant to make cold soups due to the characteristic fishy smell of kelp.
