Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Gluten-free udon noodles
- 4 cups Dashi stock
- 2 tablespoons Gluten-free soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Mirin
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 10 grams Bonito flakes
- 100 grams Fresh shiitake mushrooms
- 2 pieces Green onions
- 150 grams Firm tofu
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Prepare the gluten-free udon noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and rinse them under cold water. Set aside.
In a large pot, bring the dashi stock to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Add the gluten-free soy sauce, mirin, and sugar to the pot, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved.
Introduce the bonito flakes into the broth, allowing them to steep for about 2 minutes to infuse the flavor. Afterward, strain and discard the flakes with a fine strainer.
Thinly slice the shiitake mushrooms and add them to the broth. Simmer for 4-5 minutes until they become tender and release their aroma.
Dice the firm tofu into bite-sized cubes and add to the pot. Simmer gently for an additional 3 minutes to warm the tofu.
While the soup simmers, thinly slice the green onions and set aside for garnish.
Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the sesame oil and salt, adjusting seasoning to taste.
Divide the cooked udon noodles into serving bowls.
Ladle the hot broth, along with mushrooms and tofu, over the noodles in each bowl.
Garnish each bowl with a generous amount of sliced green onions.
Serve immediately and enjoy your nourishing Gluten-Free Classic Udon Soup.
