Ingredients
- Salt
- 1/3 cup soy sauce, plus more to taste
- 1/3 cup ketchup or 3 tablespoons tomato paste and a pinch of sugar
- 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar, plus more to taste
- A few drops dark sesame oil, optional
- A squirt sriracha or other sauce, or a dried red chile, to taste, optional
- 1 pound egg noodles, preferably fresh
Directions
-
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt it.
-
In a smaller pot, bring 6 cups of water to a boil; once boiling, reduce heat so water bubbles gently.
-
To the smaller pot add soy sauce, ketchup, vinegar, sesame oil, if using, and sriracha or chile, along with a pinch of salt. Stir and let simmer.
-
Add egg noodles to large pot. Cook’s Note: Fresh noodles will be ready in just a couple of minutes; dried will take longer.
-
When tender, but not mushy, drain. Taste broth and add more soy, salt, vinegar, or heat as you like. Divide the noodles into bowls and pour hot broth over all.
