Asian Soba Noodle Broth Bowls

*Pickled radishes can be purchased from any large Korean market in the ready made food section. Or you can pickle your own by heat vinegar, water, salt and sugar in a medium-sized saucepan over high heat, whisking until all of the sugar is dissolved. Bring to a light boil and then pour over the shredded radish in a mason jar. Let sit until the liquid has cooled, for about 25-30 minutes and place into the refrigerator overnight. The pickled vegetables will keep for several weeks in the refrigerator in the covered Mason jars. Be sure to purchase a Korean radish or daikon.

Instructions

  • Using a heavy bottomed pot or dutch oven over high heat, bring your chicken stock, grated ginger, soy sauce and rice wine vinegar to a boil. Once boiling, add the shredded cabbage and turn down to a medium simmer. Let cook for another 5 to 6 minutes, or until the cabbage is softened.
