Japanese Mushroom Egg Noodle Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large saucepan of water to a simmer.
• Heat vegetable oil in a pot over medium. Add scallion whites and sliced mushrooms, season with salt and cook until browned, stirring occasionally, 5 to 6 minutes.
• Add 3 cups water to the pot and bring to a simmer over medium-high. Add bok choy and cook until crisp-tender, about 1 minute. Stir in soy sauce and 2 teaspoons sesame oil and season to taste with salt. Turn off heat and cover to keep warm.
• Meanwhile, cook somen according to package instructions in the simmering water in the saucepan. Using a slotted spoon or spider, divide the noodles among bowls, leaving the simmering water in the saucepan. Crack each egg into its own small bowl, discarding the shells. Swirl the simmering water in the saucepan, creating a vortex by stirring with a wooden spoon. Add the eggs, one right after another, and cook over medium-low until the whites are set, about 3 minutes. Transfer eggs to noodle bowls using a slotted spoon.
• Ladle the reserved shiitake broth into the bowls. Top with sliced scallion greens, drizzle with sesame oil and serve.

Steps:

• Heat 4 tablespoons olive oil in a large pot or dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and onion, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Meanwhile, mince the garlic and chop the carrots and celery. Pick off the thyme leaves.
• Move the mushrooms to one side of the pot. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, the garlic and thyme to the other side and cook until golden, about 20 seconds. Add the mushroom broth, 4 cups water, the carrots, celery, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Bring to a boil and cook until slightly reduced, 10 to 12 minutes. Add the pasta and cook until al dente, about 10 more minutes; keep warm over low heat.
• Meanwhile, bring a small saucepan of water to a boil. Carefully add the eggs and simmer until soft-boiled, 6 to 7 minutes. Remove and run under cold water until cool enough to handle, then peel.
• Ladle the soup into bowls. Halve the eggs and add to the bowls. Sprinkle the soup with salt, pepper, celery leaves and the chives.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain.
• Return pasta to pot with chicken, soup, garlic salt and pepper over medium heat. Heat through, 5 minutes.
