Step 1: Cook the Noodles

•  Bring a pot of water to a boil.
• Add the udon noodles and cook according to the package instructions until al dente.
• Once cooked, drain the noodles and set them aside.

Step 2: Prepare the Soup Base

• In a separate pot, heat the vegetable or chicken broth over medium heat.
• Add the miso paste to the broth, whisking until it’s fully dissolved.
• Stir in the sliced mushrooms, cubed tofu, green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, and minced garlic.
• Let the soup simmer for 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Step 3: Combine Noodles and Soup

• Once the soup is ready, divide the cooked udon noodles into four serving bowls.
• Ladle the miso soup mixture over the noodles, ensuring each bowl has an equal amount of tofu, mushrooms, and broth.

Step 4: Garnish and Serve

• Garnish the miso soup noodles with optional toppings such as seaweed strips, sesame seeds, or chili flakes for added flavor and texture.
• Serve the soup noodles hot and enjoy!
