Chef's Tips

For a richer flavor, use a combination of chicken broth and homemade chicken stock.

You can add other vegetables like bok choy or spinach to the soup.

Adjust the amount of soy sauce and mirin to your preference.

If you don't have udon noodles, you can substitute with ramen or soba noodles.

For a spicy kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of chili oil.
