Method
- Soak. Cover shiitake with hot water for 20 minutes, then slice. Reserve 60 ml soaking liquid.
- Mix. Combine soy, vinegar, sesame oil, sugar and reserved liquid.
- Prepare noodles. Loosen udon according to the packet directions and drain.
- Stir-fry. Heat neutral oil. Fry mushrooms for 3 minutes, then add pak choi and garlic.
- Toss. Add udon and sauce; toss over high heat for 2 minutes. Finish with spring onion and sesame.
Chef's note: The strained mushroom soaking liquid gives the sauce extra depth.
