Combine the water and kombu in a 3 quart sauce pan and bring to a boil, remove the kombu and add the mushrooms. Lower the heat and simmer gently for 1 hour. Strain the broth and add enough water to equal 2 quarts. Stir in the remaining ingredients.
Serve over cooked Soba noodles, blanched broccoli florets, cauliflower, julienned carrots and/or mung bean sprouts.
