Method
Cut the tofu, mushrooms and cabbage into serving pieces.
Whisk the soy sauce, rice vinegar and lime juice together in a small bowl to make a citrus-soy dipping sauce.
Pour the kombu dashi into a large saucepan or table-top hot pot and bring to a gentle simmer.
Add the cabbage, shiitake and king oyster mushroom to the simmering broth and cook for 5 minutes until softened.
Holding a piece of tofu with tongs, swish it through the simmering broth for 20 seconds until warmed through.
Repeat with the remaining tofu in small batches, keeping the broth at a gentle simmer throughout.
Ladle the vegetables and broth into bowls and serve everything with the citrus-soy dip and goma dare for dipping, scattered with spring onion.
