Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prep the Noodles: Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Add the udon noodles and cook according to the package instructions, typically 3-4 minutes for fresh noodles. Drain and rinse with cold water.
  2. Create the Broth: In a medium saucepan, combine vegetable broth, miso paste, and coconut milk. Whisk together until miso is dissolved and smooth. Heat until simmering.
  3. Simmer: Reduce heat and let the broth simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to meld the flavors.
  4. Add Sauces: Stir in soy sauce and sesame oil into the simmering broth, mixing well for enhanced flavor.
  5. Combine: Add drained noodles to the broth, gently tossing to coat. Let them soak for 1-2 minutes to absorb flavor.
  6. Serve: Ladle into bowls, topping with chopped green onions. Best enjoyed hot.
