2. Meanwhile, sauté a handful of sliced shiitakes in oil until crisp.
3. Whisk a cup of the water with ½ cup miso in a bowl until smooth.
4. Pour the miso mix into the water and add ½ pound silken tofu along with some shredded carrots, turnip and ginger, the chopped kombu and about a handful of cooked, shelled edamame.
5. Let stand long enough to heat the tofu through, about a minute. Add some chopped scallions and the crisp shiitakes and serve.
