Directions
Pour the water into a pot and adding the bouillon cubes. Bring it all to a boil, stirring occasionally until the cubes have completely dissolved. Once that’s done, lower the heat and toss in the scallions. Let them simmer for about half a minute to release their flavor. Next, add the kale and tofu to the pot. Cook everything together for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the kale is tender but still has a bit of bite. Give it a taste and adjust the seasoning if needed, then it’s ready to enjoy!
How To Serve This Dish
Serve this soup hot with a side of steamed rice or crusty bread. You can also garnish it with chopped green onions or fresh herbs like cilantro to add a fresh touch. A sprinkle of chili flakes works well if you like a little heat.
Freezing Tips
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave to avoid breaking the tofu. Avoid freezing, as it may change the texture of the tofu and broth.
