About This Recipe
This simple dish takes just minutes to make and is another use for our Brilliant Base Aromatic Nage.
Tofu ensures there’s a full complement of essential amino acids (the building blocks of protein) in the dish, shiitake mushrooms provide vitamin D and wakame is a highly dense sea vegetable. It’s low in calories and rich in nutrients, which includes a healthy dose of iodine which is needed to support proper function of the thyroid gland which helps regulate the metabolism.
Other studies have shown it may also reduce blood pressure and the risk of heart disease, low cholesterol levels and improve insulin resistance, which in turn may aid weight loss!
