NOTE:
This soup is very open to variation, so you can try adding or substituting: Vegetables: broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, asparagus, zucchini, corn, chopped tomatoes, greens (bok choy, kale, beet greens, spinach, chard), yellow or white sliced onion, fresh peppers, and bean sprouts. Fresh fennel could also be used in place of celery.
Dried spices: red pepper flakes, cumin, whole star anise pods, clove, black pepper, turmeric, cayenne pepper, paprika
Fresh herbs: cilantro, parsley, mint, or basil (Thai basil would be really good). Using more than one type of herb is fine too.
Other: 180 gr of tofu, cubed (add in step 2; use extra firm tofu). Coconut water in place of some of the water. Dried seaweed of your choice.
