Chicken Pastrami
Ginger‑Garlic Beef and Noodle Soup
| By : |
Talk about a bowl of comfort! But the prep is a tad involved. Bear with us. You’ll need to put the ingredients under pressure twice. The first time infuses the flavor of the dried mushrooms and cinnamon into the broth. The second time cooks the rice noodles and the bok choy quickly so they don’t get squishy. Your efforts will pay off. Promise.
We call for chicken broth here, not beef, because it gives the soup a clearer color and a milder flavor, the better to see and taste all the vegetables and noodles.
