Recipes - Vegan, Macrobiotic & Japanese

This recipe is inspired by tantanmen ramen – a Japanese take on Sichuan dan dan noodles, with a broth made from soya milk and sesame – but it is by no means authentic. Typically this would have a proper stock as the base and be topped with minced (ground) pork, but I got attached to the idea of a ramen that could be knocked up quickly and that remained vegetarian/vegan. I also wanted to use udon noodles (again, untraditional), because I love their texture: big, fat, slippery, chewy – is there anything more satisfying?

This delicious Ramen with Miso Ginger Soup is an absolute winner. Such a fantastic and healthy addition to your ‘pantry’ on the table in 5 minutes.
