I occasionally crave this Udon Soup with Wakame & Nori. It can be just the soup, but I often add Cooked Udon Noodles and make it into a meal. It is probably not very nutritious, but it’s OK as my diet is generally well balanced. You probably have some particular foods you occasionally crave. This …
For this Harusame Soup, Chicken can be replaced with Pork OR Beef. I often add Ginger to Wakame Soup, but I added Garlic to this soup. This is a Korean inspired version of Wakeme Soup. Add Harusame Noodles (Bean Thread Noodles) to the seasoned soup. Noodles get cooked very quickly and make this soup more …
A quick, easy and healthy dish, that’s what I want to cook for my lunch. I cook Harusame Soup very often, because it is absolutely ‘quick, easy and healthy’. Today I made this Pho Inspired Chicken & Harusame Soup, and it was so good. Dry Harusame Noodles can be cooked in the seasoned soup very …
I am a big fan of Tom Yum soups, particularly ‘Tom Yum Goong’. I don’t cook it at home as I usually don’t have ingredients such as Lemongrass and Kaffir Lime Leaves. So it is a restaurant food for me, though I often find it too spicy. This is my recipe to make a similar …
This is another super quick & easy soup that you can cook with Dry ‘Harusame’ Noodles, aka ‘Bean Vermicelli’ OR ‘Thread Noodles’. I love to add ‘Harusame’ to soups as it makes the soups more filling and just one bowl of soup can be a meal. Today I added Pearl Barley as well, but already …
This is a super quick & easy soup if you have Frozen Dumplings such as Har Gow OR Gyoza. There are authentic ways to cook those Dumplings, but they can be boiled in soup. Add some leafy vegetable of your choice. Today I added Iceberg Lettuce, that goes so well with Prawns and Shrimps. It …

Everyone was happy. Makes 4 Servings …
There are some particular food that I wish to eat when I am unwell. ‘Okayu’ Japanese Rice Porridge and ‘Ojiya’ Egg Rice Porridge are the ones. The other day, I caught a cold and stayed in bed wishing someone to cook this ‘Egg Udon Soup’ for me. Only my husband and son were home and …
This is one of the soups that I frequently cook. It’s a super quick and easy soup. You can use medium soft Tofu, but I always use Silken Tofu, that is the softest type. Because of the soft jelly-like texture of Silken Tofu and the thickened soup, this soup is very comforting when I have …
It takes time to cook Ham Hock until soft and that’s the down side of this soup. However, Ham Hock makes an excellent stock. Cook Vegetables and Beans in the stock until soft. That’s basically how to cook Ham Hock Soup. You can cook Dried Split Peas in the stock to make the popular Pea …
This stew is super easy to cook and really delicious. It takes at least 1 & 1/2 hours, but you don’t need to do anything really. Just simmer the ingredients until ready. Chicken Drumsticks would be very soft after 1 & 1/2 hours. You may wish to add Noodles such as Ramen Noodles OR Rice …
