How to Make Eggy Udon Noodles

STEP 1.Boil water and cook udon noodles for 2-3 minutes (if fresh or frozen). Drain and set aside, saving ¼ cup of the noodle water.

STEP 2.Add the cooked udon noodles to the pan. Stir in soy sauce and a splash of reserved noodle water. Toss everything together until the noodles are well coated. Serve immediately with garnishes of your choice.

Can I make this without soy sauce?

Yes! Substitute with tamari, coconut aminos, or even a pinch of salt. Miso paste can also add depth without soy sauce.

How do I store leftovers?

Keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a pan with a splash of water to revive the sauce.

What other proteins can I add?

Shrimp, tofu, or shredded chicken all work well. You can also stir in a soft-boiled ramen egg for extra richness.
