Ginger Tofu and Noodle Soup image

The tofu in this can easily be replaced with duck for the carnivores out there. This is one of my favourite soups when I'm poorly sick. The tofu can be either cotton or silken but must be firm, I prefer aeseptic (silken) myself and the mushrooms can be subbed for dried shitake if desired.
