Steps:
- Place dried mushrooms in a bowl or large heatproof measuring cup and cover with 2 cups boiling water. Let sit for 30 minutes. If mushrooms are sandy, agitate from time to time. Line a strainer with cheesecloth and place over a 1-quart measuring cup. Drain through the strainer, then twist mushrooms in the cheesecloth, holding them over the strainer, to squeeze out the last of the flavorful liquid. Discard reconstituted mushrooms or set aside for another use.
- While porcinis are soaking, pull tough stems away from shiitake mushroom caps. Slice caps thin and set aside.
- Combine the mushroom broth with enough water to make 9 cups liquid and place in a saucepan or soup pot. Add shiitake stems, quartered button or cremini mushrooms, halved head of garlic, salt and ginger slices, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 30 minutes.
- Use a slotted spoon or skimmer to remove mushrooms, stems, garlic and ginger from broth. Add soy sauce to broth. Taste and adjust salt.
- Bring broth back to a boil and add tofu. Reduce heat to a simmer or a gentle boil, cover partly and simmer for 30 minutes. Tofu will puff a little, and texture will become more porous and spongy.
- Add thinly sliced shiitake mushroom caps, cover and simmer 5 minutes. Stir in cilantro and chives. Taste, adjust seasoning and serve.

Tips:
- Use a variety of mushrooms. To create a more complex and flavorful soup, use a mix of different mushroom varieties, such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
- Sauté the mushrooms properly. Sautéing the mushrooms correctly is essential for developing their flavor. Cook them over medium-high heat until they are browned and slightly crispy.
- Use a good quality vegetable broth. The vegetable broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth that is flavorful and well-seasoned.
- Don't overcook the tofu. Tofu is a delicate ingredient that can easily become overcooked. Simmer it in the soup for just a few minutes, until it is heated through.
- Season the soup to taste. Once the soup is cooked, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs.
