Best Toasted Sesame Noodle Soup Recipes

SESAME NOODLES

Steps:

• Cook pasta al dente according to package instructions in a large stockpot of generously-salted water.
• Meanwhile, as the pasta is cooking, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, ground ginger, chili garlic sauce, garlic powder and black pepper together in a bowl until combined.
• Once the pasta is ready, drain it. Then immediately toss the pasta with the sauce and green onions until combined.
• Serve warm or cold, sprinkled with your desired toppings. Or transfer to a sealed container and refrigerate for up to 4 days.

SESAME-GINGER CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons sesame oil in a medium pot over medium. Season chicken with salt and add to pot, skin-side down, along with sliced ginger. Cook, turning, until the chicken skin and ginger slices are golden, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Add rice cooking wine and boil until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add 6 cups water and bring to a boil over high. Once boiling, partially cover the pot with a lid, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the chicken is tender and the broth is flavorful, about 40 minutes.
• Remove chicken from the pot and transfer to a bowl until cool enough to handle. Strain the broth, discarding the ginger, then season with salt, cover and set aside. When the chicken has cooled, discard the skin and bones and shred the meat then return it to the broth.
• Meanwhile, bring a saucepan of water to boil and cook ramen noodles according to package instructions.
• Divide cooked noodles among bowls and top with the chicken and its broth. Garnish with scallions, julienned ginger, a sprinkle of pepper and more sesame oil.

SESAME NOODLE SOUP WITH GINGER AND CHILIES

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the spaghettini and cook until al dente, about 9 minutes. Drain and place in a large bowl.
• Meanwhile, whisk together 1/4 cup of the chicken broth, the sesame oil, soy sauce, sesame seeds, ginger and jalapenos. Add the mixture to the pasta and toss to coat well.
• Place the remaining chicken broth in a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Mound the spaghettini mixture in the center of each of 4 soup plates. Top with the scallions and chicken, if using. Serve immediately.
