Cooking Note(s):
Since I am cooking for only 1 or 2, I used freeze-dried tofu which can be purchased at Japanese supermarkets. I got mine from Don Don Donki (SG).

This looks so appetizing. Those freeze-dried tofu bites are new to me…definitely very convenient when you just need a few for the soup.
Been a long time since I bought frozen assorted seafood. The last time I got it, used it for one-dish pasta.
