PREPARE AHEAD: 1. In a small saucepan, combine ½ cup soy sauce with 2 tbs. of mirin (or the dry sherry) and sprinkle lightly with MSG.
Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, then pour into individual serving bowls.
2. slice the 4 scallions crosswise into very thin rounds.
3. Garnish the sauce with the scallions, ginger, Hanakatsuo and nori, and then set aside.
4. Cut the 4 cakes of tofu into 1 inch cubes.
5. Pass the sheet of nori over a flame on one side only and cut it into ½ inch square pieces.
TO COOK and SERVE:
following the nabe procedure described in the "Sukiyaki" recipe, place the cooking pot of your choice on the dining table. Pour in the 6 cups of cold water, add the square of kombu, and bring to a boil.
Drop in the tofu and simmer gently for 2 to 3 minutes--if cooked too rapidly or too long, the tofu will harden.
Scoop the tofu out of the broth with a slotted spatula or spoon and place individual bowls. Ladle a little of the broth into each bowl, and serve with the dipping sauce and garnishes.
