reply to Napolits: During steps 2 & 3, you want to keep the soup at a slow boil or "simmer". I hope this helps. It's a very easy soup to make, so I encourage you to give it a try. You will be surprised at how quickly you learn ;-) Good luck!

This is fantastic! A friend made this soup and entered it into our annual "Soup Cook-off". This was the winning recipe! Can't wait to try it myself. I'll be following the tips of other reviewers to avoid the "grittiness" that some reviews have complained about. There was NO sign of grittiness in the batch my friend won with!

Yum! Thanks for sharing this. My hubby is Japanese and he and my teenage daughter order this every time we're out for sushi. They thought Mom was awesome for making it at home and having it turn out yummy!
