Yield Serves 4 as a main course

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 pound bok choy
1/2 pound fresh shiitake mushrooms
6 scallions
8 grams katsuobushi (dried bonito flakes; about 2/3 cup)
6 ounces thin Asian wheat or buckwheat noodles

Steps:

  • Cut bok choy crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Discard stems from mushrooms and cut caps into thin slices. Cut scallions diagonally into thin slices.
  • In a 5- to 6-quart kettle bring 6 cups water to a boil with katsuobushi and boil 1 minute. Pour stock through a fine sieve into a large bowl and discard katsuobushi. Return stock to kettle and add bok choy, mushrooms, and noodles. Simmer soup, uncovered, until noodles are tender, 2 to 5 minutes, depending on type of noodle. Season soup with salt and pepper and stir in scallions.

BIRRIA RAMEN

The leftover birria broth, or consomé, from a pot of birria is delicious and versatile, and can be repurposed in the kitchen in a number of ways. Use it like stock, to cook beans, and infuse them with all the flavors of the birria, or stretch it into another meal by dropping in some matzo balls to poach. If you've only got a little left, you can make a quick, comforting noodle dish, garnished with fresh herbs and a little onion. This recipe works well with instant ramen noodles, pulled from a package, though fresh noodles are great, too.

Time 15m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups leftover birria broth, with or without meat
Kosher salt, as needed
1 egg
1 (3-ounce) portion instant ramen noodles
1 spring onion, chopped, or 1 tablespoon chopped red or white onion
Chopped or torn fresh cilantro or oregano leaves
1 lime, quartered

Steps:

  • Bring a medium pot of water to a boil.
  • If there's meat on the bone in your leftover birria broth, pull it off the bone, shred it with your fingers or a fork, and return it to the broth. In a small pot, heat the broth over medium - if it's thick, add a splash of water to make it soupy. When it comes to a simmer, taste for seasoning and adjust if needed with salt. Turn the heat down to low.
  • Crack the egg into a small bowl, then carefully slide it into the broth. Once the white is completely set but the yolk is still soft, turn off the heat.
  • As soon as you add the egg to the broth, add the noodles to the boiling water and simmer according to package instructions until cooked, about 2 minutes; drain.
  • Add the cooked noodles to a bowl then gently spoon the egg and broth on top. Garnish with onion and herbs, and top with a squeeze of lime juice.
