Ingredients

Serves:

8 cup low sodium vegetable broth

8 mushrooms, shiitake, dried

1 cup chopped leeks, finely (white parts only)

2 tsp fresh ginger root, grated

2 tsp rice vinegar

2 tsp low sodium soy sauce

1 tbsp mirin (optional )

3 oz pasta, soba, dry

2 cup fresh chopped spinach, washed and stemmed

1 tbsp miso (optional)

1 tbsp scallions, chopped

1 tsp sesame seeds

Directions

1. In a soup pot, bring the vegetable stock to a boil. Add the shiitake, leeks, ginger, vinegar, soy sauce, and mirin, if using. Cover and simmer until the leeks are tender, about 10 minutes.

2. Meanwhile, in a separate pot, cook the soba noodles in boiling water to cover for about 5 minutes.

3. When the leeks are tender, add the spinach and simmer for another minute, until the spinach has wilted but is still bright green.

4. In a small bowl, combine the miso with a few tablespoons of the hot broth to make a smooth sauce, then stir it back into the soup.

5. Drain the soba noodles and evenly divide them among four individual serving bowls. Ladle on the soup and top with sliced scallions and a sprinkling of toasted sesame seeds.
