VEGAN FUZZY SQUASH SEAWEED SOUP

by Thao Le

In Vietnam, seaweed soup has become very popular in recent years. When served cold, a cup of seaweed soup is refreshing, and when served warm, it has a sweet taste that would be enhanced even more. It also contains a lot of nutrients. Adding several additional ingredients to a seaweed soup, for instance, may make it even more intriguing and flavorful.

Squash is a fantastic addition to this Vegan Fuzzy Squash Seaweed Soup, so be sure to incorporate it as a significant component of your vegetarian meal. Heat relief, rheumatism treatment, and diuretic properties are all provided by squash, which is particularly beneficial for those who suffer from high blood pressure, insomnia, or a bitter taste in their mouths.

Method

  1. PREPARATION
  2. Fuzzy Squash: Under cold running water, thoroughly rinse the squash. With a paring knife, trim the stem and bloom end. Scrape off the outer layer of the squash using the back of a paring knife to remove the fuzz.
  3. Preserve as much skin as possible to maximize nutrition retention. Then julienne the squash with a spiralizer and scoop the seeds. You may also chop the squash into your favorite shapes.
  4. Dried Seaweed: Soak the dried seaweed in cold water for 5 to 10 minutes while allowing it to expand. Drain the water away and rinse the seaweed a couple of times in running water.
  5. Drain or squeeze the water out. If you’re using non pre-cut dried seaweed, cut it with scissors – about little finger lengths. Set it aside. 
  6. INSTRUCTIONS
  7. Step 1: Cooking
  8. Begin by bringing 1 liter of water to a boil in a pot over high heat, then adding the raw peanuts and cooking until soft, about 10 minutes.
  9. After that, add the squash scoops and season with 1 teaspoon of salt. Continue with the julienned squash, seaweed, and silken tofu.
  10. Step 2: Finish
  11. Cook the soup for another 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender, then garnish with finely chopped cilantro and freshly ground pepper, and you are done.
