Udon With Tofu And Stir-Fried Vegetables
- Kosher salt
- 3/4 lb. dried udon noodles
- 3 cups lower-salt chicken broth
- 1 Tbs. plus 2 tsp. oyster sauce
- 1 Tbs. plus 2 tsp. rice vinegar
- 4 tsp. Asian sesame oil
- 1/4 cup minced fresh ginger
- 2 Tbs. canola oil
- 3/4 lb. bok choy, cut crosswise into 3/4-inch pieces (4 cups)
- 3-1/2 oz. shiitake mushrooms, stemmed and thinly sliced (1-1/2 cups)
- 1/2 lb. extra-firm tofu, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 2 medium carrots, cut into matchsticks
- 3 medium scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced, for garnish
- Bring a medium pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook, stirring, until tender, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a colander and run under cold water to cool slightly. Drain well.
- In a medium bowl, mix the chicken broth, oyster sauce, vinegar, and 2 tsp. of the sesame oil.
- Heat the ginger and canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the ginger sizzles steadily for about 30 seconds. Add the bok choy and mushrooms, sprinkle with the remaining 2 tsp. sesame oil and 3/4 tsp. salt and cook, tossing after 1 minute, until the bok choy turns dark green and begins to soften, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the chicken broth mixture, tofu, and carrots and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until the carrots are soft and the tofu is heated through, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Distribute the noodles among 4 bowls. Spoon the vegetables, tofu, and broth over the noodles. Sprinkle with the scallions and serve.
