  1. Soak wakame dried seaweed in lukewarm water for 15 minutes. Then cut into small bite size pieces.
  2. Heat olive oil in a medium to large pot over medium low heat.
  3. Add ginger, garlic, green onion whites, and turmeric. Sauté gently for 1 to 2 minutes until fragrant, not browned.
  4. Pour in the stock and bring to a gentle simmer.
  5. Add tofu and wakame. Simmer for 8 to 10 minutes until tofu is heated through and wakame has softened.
  6. Reduce heat to low. In a small bowl, whisk the miso with one ladle of warm broth until smooth, then gently stir it back into the pot.
  7. Do not boil after adding miso. Warm gently for 1 to 2 minutes, then finish with sesame oil.
  8. Serve hot with green onion tops and a squeeze of fresh lime.
