👨‍🍳 Instruktioner

1
Prepare the broth: In a medium saucepan, combine the dashi stock, soy sauce, and mirin. If using, add the optional tablespoon of sugar. Stir to combine.
⏱️ 5 minutes
2
Simmer the beef: Bring the broth to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced beef to the simmering broth, separating the slices as you add them. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the beef is just cooked through and no longer pink. Skim off any impurities that rise to the surface. The broth should become slightly richer and the beef tender.
⏱️ 5-7 minutes
3
Cook the udon noodles: While the beef simmers, cook the udon noodles according to package instructions. Typically, fresh or frozen udon only requires a few minutes of boiling. Drain the noodles thoroughly.
⏱️ 3-5 minutes
4
Assemble the bowls: Divide the cooked udon noodles between two large serving bowls. Ladle the hot dashi broth over the noodles, ensuring each bowl gets a generous amount of broth.
⏱️ 2 minutes
5
Top and serve: Arrange the simmered beef slices over the noodles and broth. Garnish generously with the thinly sliced green onions. Sprinkle with Shichimi Togarashi, if desired, for a touch of spice.
⏱️ 1 minute
