Elaboració

Pas a pas

1
Begin by making the vegan dashi for the dipping sauce: combine the water, kombu, and dried shiitake mushrooms in a small saucepan. Let it sit for at least 10 minutes to infuse, or up to 30 minutes for a stronger flavor.
Uns 10 min
Nota de cuina: For deeper umami, you can soak the kombu and shiitake in water overnight in the refrigerator.
2
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the dashi mixture just to a simmer, but do not let it boil vigorously. Once it reaches a gentle simmer, remove the kombu to prevent bitterness.
Uns 5 min
3
Continue to gently simmer the dashi with the shiitake mushrooms for another 5 minutes. Remove the shiitake mushrooms (they can be sliced and used as a topping if desired).
Uns 5 min
4
Stir in the soy sauce, mirin, and sugar into the dashi. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Let the dipping sauce cool completely, then chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Nota de cuina: The sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
5
While the sauce chills, bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Add the somen noodles and cook according to package directions, usually 2-3 minutes, until al dente.
Uns 3 min
Nota de cuina: Somen cooks very quickly, so watch it carefully to avoid overcooking.
6
Drain the cooked somen noodles and immediately rinse thoroughly under cold running water to remove excess starch and stop the cooking process. Continue rinsing until the noodles are completely chilled.
Uns 2 min
Nota de cuina: Rinsing well is key to achieving the perfect texture for chilled somen.
7
Divide the chilled somen noodles among serving bowls. Serve with the cold dipping sauce on the side. Garnish each bowl with sliced scallions, grated ginger, and optional toasted sesame seeds.
Nota de cuina: Offer individual small bowls of dipping sauce for each diner.
