Steaming Udon Noodle Bowls
Method
In a saucepan combine the water, soy, mirin, ginger and sugar and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning – more sugar for sweet, more soy for salt.
To cook the udon, drop into boiling water and boil for 3 minutes before draining.
Put noodles in serving bowls then add the hot stock and garnish with toasted seaweed, spring onions and bonito flakes.
