Japanese Harusame Noodle Soup Recipe
Japanese Harusame Noodle Soup Recipe is a light, low calorie, delicious soup recipe made with semi-transparent noodles (harusame noodles). It is made with mushrooms, spinach, and green onions. The soup is flavored with a chicken bouillon base, that is enhanced with soy sauce, salt, and sesame oil. Finally a beaten egg is added to finish this delicious soup. Please give it a try!
This dish is not often served in cafes or restaurants. However, it is often made at home. This is especially true for people who are dieting! Harusame soup and harusame salad are filling, but have few calories. Harusame noodles are low calorie alternatives to other types of noodles because they are made from beans.
Tips for Making Japanese Harusame Noodle Soup Recipe
- Harusame is a healthy, low calorie alternative to other types of noodles. However, the noodles make you feel full! I highly recommend this dish if you are dieting and want to lose weight. Also, various healthy vegetables can be added to enhance your diet.
- As a soup, nearly anything can be added to this dish. If you have left over vegetables that are near their expiration date, you can add them into this soup.
- I recommend waiting about 20-30 seconds after adding the beaten egg. If you stir it too quickly, the soup will turn yellowish, as opposed to having strings of cooked egg throughout the soup.
- If you like harusame, you can also add it to our sundubu recipe. Please check out our sundubu soup recipe. We also have a harusame salad recipe you should check out.
- As an alternative to making sundubu, you can also add chili oil to this recipe to make it spicier.
