Recipe

Soak the dried seaweed in water for about 30 minutes until fully rehydrated, then squeeze out excess water.
Heat sesame oil in a pot over medium heat and stir-fry the rehydrated seaweed.
Stir-fry the seaweed for about 2 minutes to remove its characteristic briny smell.
Add water and 2 vegetable coin stock cubes, and bring to a boil over high heat.
Once boiling, reduce heat to medium and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the seaweed is very tender.
When the seaweed is completely soft, season with soup soy sauce and minced garlic.
Optionally, drizzle a little sesame oil on top before serving.

Squeeze excess water from rehydrated seaweed.
Stir-fry seaweed in sesame oil for 2 minutes in a pot.
Add water and coin stock, then simmer for 15-20 minutes.
Season with soy sauce and minced garlic, then finish.

Cooking tips

Stir-frying the seaweed sufficiently in sesame oil brings out its savory flavor and prevents a fishy smell.
If you prefer beef seaweed soup, stir-fry beef in sesame oil first before adding the seaweed and stir-frying them together.
