Janchi Guksu (Korean Warm Noodle Soup)

Image
This is the first time I tried cooking Japanese somen, a fine thin wheat noodle that resembles our Chinese mee sua. But the texture of the Japanese somen tasted so much better than the latter! The somen is less starchy and remained 'al dente' if left at room temperature.  We really enjoy this bowl of light tasty somen soup! The broth is made with simple ingredients like radish, anchovies, kelp, onion, garlic and spring onion which required only 25 mins of simmering. To keep this noodle dish on the lighter side, the accomplishment like zucchini, carrots, shimeiji mushroom and chicken meat are all lightly seasoned and pan fried. Some may find it too bland for their taste bud. If you like kimchi, serve it at the side which will helps to perk up the taste of this light refreshing broth.
