This Ginger Garlic Noodle Broth is a light, nourishing soup infused with aromatic ginger and garlic, served with soft noodles and customizable toppings. It’s cozy, healing, and ready in under 30 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil or neutral oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, sliced or grated
  • 3 cloves garlic, sliced or minced
  • 4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar (optional)
  • 6–8 oz noodles (ramen, soba, rice noodles, or udon)
  • 1/4 cup scallions, sliced (for garnish)
  • Fresh herbs like cilantro or basil (optional)
  • Red pepper flakes or chili oil (optional, for heat)
  • 1 cup vegetables (bok choy, spinach, mushrooms, etc., optional)
  • Protein such as tofu, soft-boiled eggs, or shredded chicken (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large saucepan, heat sesame oil over medium heat.
  2. Sauté ginger and garlic for 1–2 minutes until fragrant, avoiding browning.
  3. Add broth and bring to a gentle simmer.
  4. Stir in soy sauce and rice vinegar (if using), and let simmer for 10–15 minutes.
  5. Cook noodles according to package instructions in a separate pot, then drain and set aside.
  6. If adding vegetables or protein, stir them into the simmering broth and cook until just tender.
  7. Divide noodles into bowls and ladle hot broth and toppings over them.
  8. Garnish with scallions, herbs, and chili oil or red pepper flakes as desired.

Notes

  • Store broth and noodles separately to prevent sogginess.
  • Use tamari instead of soy sauce for a gluten-free version.
  • Add miso paste or coconut milk for a flavor twist.
  • Customize with different proteins and veggies based on preference.
  • Great for meal prep—the broth tastes better the next day.
