Vegan Recipe: Japanese Tofu Soba Noodle Soup
Courtesy Nava Atlas of Vegetarian Kitchen, from her cookbook, Vegetarian Soups for All Seasons. See the SV Review
6 servings
Serve this soup Asian-style. Slurp the noodles from the broth with chopsticks, then use an Asian soup spoon to scoop up what's left.
This simple tofu-noodle soup comes together in less than 30 minutes.
Ingredients:
- One 8 ounce package soba (buckwheat) noodles
- One 32 ounce carton low-sodium vegetable broth
- 6 to 8 medium-sized shitake mushroom caps, sliced
- 2 Tbsp reduced-sodiuim soy sauce
- 2 tsp rice vinegar
- 2 tsp natural granulated sugar
- 2 to 3 tsp minced fresh ginger, to taste
- 3 scallions, thinly sliced
- 8 ounces soft or firm tofu
- 8 to 10 ounces fresh spinach, well washed, stemmed, and chopped
- 1 cup schopped baby bok choy, tatsoi, or mizuna, optional
- Fresh ground black pepper, to taste
Directions:
- Break the noodles in half and cook them in a large saucepan according to package directions until al dente, then drain. Rinse briefly with cool water.
- Meanwhile,combine the broth, mushrooms, soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, and ginger in a soup pot. Bring to a rapid simmer, then lower the heat. Cover and simmer gently for 10 minutes.
- Stir in the scallions, tofu, spinach, and optional bok choy. Cover and cook until the spinach is wilted but still bright green, about 3 minutes.
- Stir in the noodles. Add about two cups additional water, or enough to give the soup a dense but not overly crowded consistency. Season with pepper and additional soy sauce if needed. Heat through and serve at once.
