Udon Soup

[HEIRESS]

I keep reading about a dashi soup base
has anyone tried making it before?

Im thinking I should just make a miso based broth and add veggies and fatty noodles instead
ja? no?

i'm going to start calling weiners "fatty noodles" now. heh heh heh. :cool:

have you tried making it yet, Heirres? It really isn't too difficult or time consuming. The only problem is the ingredients. Unless you're going to be eating a lot of it, going out and buying everything might be a bit of a waste.

I rehydrated some shitake mushrooms, used the water from that to start a broth, to which I added alot more water, then I just added a couple of heaping spoonfuls of miso paste to up the taste factor

and to this I added the mushrooms, bok choy, sea asparagus, green onion, bean sprouts, carrot slices, and some cubed medium tofu.
I also ripped apart some sheets of dried seaweed and threw those in there

and then kept adding soy sauce until it tasted perfect

finally I boiled up some fresh udon noodles and bowled it all up

it.
was.
excellent.

though I made it while in vancouver so it was extremely easy and stupid cheap buying all the ingredients since my friend/boy lives one block up from china town.
