Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 20 minutes

Japanese noodle soup

Soak the shiitake mushrooms in water for about 10 minutes, then cut into small pieces. Cut the nori sheet into strips approximately 2×5 cm. Bring about 1 liter of water to a boil in a pot with the mushrooms, nori strips, and noodles. Turn off the heat and let it simmer with the lid closed for 2-3 minutes. Chop the garlic or crush it in a garlic press and add it. Add broth/miso, but not too much; the broth shouldn’t overpower the flavor. Slice the leek into rings. Add the leek and sprouts to the soup. Variation: If you like, you can add meat or silken tofu.
