Receta Sambal Kagang Udon Noodle Soup for #ChefYaki #Fortune

by Sid's Sea Palm Cooking

Have you ever made something that tasted so good you wanted to keep eating it and eating it and eating it til it was all gone? But you don't have to feel guilty if it's this soup. I took a blogger challenge from Chef Yaki at JSL Foods to come up with a soup for their current blogger challenge.  BTW you can buy them at Albertsons, Target and other fine stores. They're also on Facebook, as well as Twitter.  #ChefYaki  #Fortune They sent me three packages of Udon Noodles, Chicken, Mushroom and Original Flavor.   I used the Original Flavor for this soup.     Hey, I think I got a winner here.  It's so flavorful, and yet light and a little bit spicy and absolutely perfect for those of us who indulged a little much in the Christmas goodies. But you can eat this year round if you like.  I think I'm going to. This soup was created using Udon Noodles which I received from JSL foods for the sole purpose of creating a soup for their blogger challenge.  I participated in this last year and came up with a couple of great recipes as well.  I made a Yaki-Soba Noodle Spring Roll with Shrimp and some Bok Choy Stir Fry with Yakisoba Noodles.   I used my new toy tool to julienne the carrots, but also used my amazing (ha ha) knife skills to cut the mini pepper in strips as well as the Bok Choy.  The smell in the kitchen as this was simmering was fantastic.  I couldn't wait to ladle it out into a bowl.  And then I thought it looked so pretty I had to keep taking pictures.  after the Sambal Kacang sauce was stirred in.  I also used a fork to wind the noodles onto the spoon.  Felt a touch Italian there. And then decided that this also lent itself well to a mug. I love mug soups.  Yield: 2 ServingsAuthor: Sid's Sea Palm CookingPrint Recipe Sambal Kagang Udon Noodle Soup for #ChefYaki #Fortune prep time: 10 MINScook time: 20 MINStotal time: 30 mins This light, slightly spicy soup is perfect for after holiday indulgences or anytime you want a slightly different soup.
