BUCKWHEAT NOODLES WITH GINGER AND MISO



Buckwheat Noodles With Ginger and Miso image

Buckwheat noodles are often served cold in Japan and Korea, and are especially welcome during hot weather. To appreciate buckwheat's delicious nutty flavor, look 100% buckwheat noodles in Asian groceries. The bright, gingery dressing needs a little spiciness, so use a good pinch of cayenne or other hot pepper. This version is meant to be a small first-course salad. Add slices of grilled chicken to make it more of a meal.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Yield 4 main course servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 ounces udon (Japanese wheat noodles), or linguine
6 cups water
1/4 cup tamari soy sauce
1/2 cup roughly sliced gingerroot (keep skin on)
1/4 pound firm tofu, cut into 1/2inch cubes
2 scallions, very thinly sliced
1/4 cup white (sweet) miso (see Note)
1 tablespoon Asian ental sesame oil

Steps:

  • Bring 3 quarts of water to a boil and cook the udon about 6 minutes, or until tender but not mushy. If the starch from the noodles looks like it is about to boil over, lower the heat slightly. Drain the udon in a colander, rinse under cold running water, drain again, and set aside.
  • In the same, pot bring the 6 cups water, the tamari, and ginger to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer the broth simmer 10 minutes. Remove ginger with slotted spoon. Stir in the tofu and half of the scallions and cook 1 minute, or just to heat through. Place the miso in a bowl, then remove about 1/2 cup of the broth and stir it into the miso to dilute it and prevent lumping. Pour the mixture into the broth. Remove the pot from the heat so the miso doesn't boil. Stir in the sesame oil. Place the udon in large soup bowls and ladle some of the very hot soup over it. Garnish with the remaining scallions.

FIVE-INGREDIENT CREAMY MISO PASTA



Five-Ingredient Creamy Miso Pasta image

This one-pot pasta comes together in minutes, and requires zero prep and minimal cleanup. It builds on the classic combination of pasta, butter and cheese with a spoonful of miso paste for complexity. But you could experiment with using any other condiments or spices you have on hand, such as red pesto, curry paste or ground turmeric in place of the miso. To achieve a silky smooth pasta, you'll need to put your cacio e pepe skills to work: Vigorously toss the pasta, grated cheese and pasta water together to achieve a properly emulsified sauce. Top with shrimp, edamame, frozen peas or any steamed vegetable. The optional nori or furikake imparts an unexpected flavor of the sea, and it's worth using if you have it on hand.

Categories     dinner, quick, weekday, pastas, main course

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

Kosher salt
16 ounces spaghetti, linguine or bucatini
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons white (or red) miso
4 ounces Parmesan, finely grated (1 packed cup)
Kizami nori, furikake or thinly sliced seaweed snacks, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente. Reserve 1 1/2 cups pasta water, then drain the pasta.
  • Add the butter, miso and 1 1/4 cups pasta water to the pot and whisk over medium heat until miso breaks down and liquid is uniform, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the pasta and Parmesan and cook, stirring vigorously with tongs until cheese is melted and sauce emulsifies. (The key word here is "vigorously." To achieve a silky smooth pasta instead of a gloppy one, put your cacio e pepe skills to work.)
  • Divide among shallow bowls and sprinkle with nori or furikake, if using.
