"This is a mix of a 'miso' and 'mushroom' style soup. It was given to me, by a friend, who was the chef at a Japanese/Fusion style restaurant. And, it is just a nice mix of flavors - it was served as their house soup. Luckily, my friend passed along the recipe to me. Mirin, Sake, and Miso may not be something that everyone keeps on hand all the time; but, they are great to cook with, and something I like to keep on hand. Once you start using these ingredients, you may find that you will start using them more and more. And, they will keep for a long time. Also, if you are not a tofu fan ... just leave it out. But, give it a try, you might surprise yourself. Note: I don't find that this soup freezes well; so, I usually just make what I need for that night. Also, this takes about 10 minutes to cook, so; a great weeknight dish. This can easily be doubled; as this recipe is based on 4 medium size bowls."

Step by Step Method
Step 1
Broth ... Add the broth, miso, sake, mirin, soy, and red pepper flakes to a medium size pot; and, bring to a light boil. Simmer 2 minutes. Then, add the tofu, mushrooms, and noodles, and cook another 2-3 minutes; then, add the bok choy, and cook 4 more minutes - until the bok choy and mushrooms are almost tender. To finish, add the scallions, and cook another 2-3 minutes until all the vegetables are tender. Season with fresh ground pepper if you want. That's it!
Step 2
Finish, Serve, and ENJOY! ... Finish the bowls with additional enoki mushrooms, scallions, and bean sprouts. Even though it is a broth soup; it is rich and delicious. The best part ... it takes no time to prepare. Just a few minutes to dice a few items; and the soup can be ready. This is wonderful served with an Asian inspired grilled seafood dish, served over rice or grilled vegetables. This also makes a perfect light dinner or lunch.
