Asian Noodle Soup |
|
Warm up your winter dinner table with this satisfying Asian Noodle Soup from cookbook author Robin Robertson. When temperatures drop, there's nothing quite like feasting on a comforting bowl of noodles in steaming, savory broth. Robertson's recipe features the bright flavors of cilantro and ginger, as well as a kick courtesy of Asian hot sauce (our favorite variety: Sriracha). Plus, this soup is filling without being full of empty calories—a plus for recovering from the decadence of the holidays.
