INGREDIENTS

FOR THE BROTH 7 cups water 1 tablespoon instant dashi stock 1?2 cup soy sauce 1 tablespoon sugar 1?2 lb dried soba noodles (buckwheat noodles) 2 carrots, sliced thin 1?2 lb spinach, coarse stems discarded and the leaves washed well, dryed, and cut crosswise into 1 1/2 inch-wide str 8 -10 ounces firm tofu, cut into 1/2 inch cubes (preferably silken) 3 -4 tablespoons miso, to taste (fermented bean paste) 2 scallions, minced

DIRECTIONS

Make the broth: In a saucepan bring the water to a boil. Stir in the dashi and simmer the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes. Stir in the soy sauce and the sugar and simmer the broth for 5 minutes. Strain the broth through a fine sieve into a heatproof bowl and pour it back into the pan. In a kettle of salted boiling water cook the noodles for 3 to 5 minutes, or until they are al dente, being careful not to overcook them, drain them in a colander, and rinse them under cold water. Add the carrots to the broth and simmer them, covered, for 5 minutes. Stir in the spinach and the tofu and simmer the soup for 1 minute. In a small bowl stir together well 1/2 cup of the soup broth and the miso and pour the mixture back into the pan. Divide the noodles among 6 large bowls, ladle the soup over them, and sprinkle each serving with some of the scallions. I sometimes sprinkle toasted nori over the soup. Enjoy!
