This soup is all about the charred daikon radishes. They caramelize at the beginning of the recipe, then simmer down in this rich, umami, somewhat spicy vegetable-packed soup. It's a plant-based dream and a full meal, thanks to all to tofu. And it's a great way to use all the daikon radishes that I find this season!
