Miso Soup of a Sort

[amazon_syren]

Eating Dinner! :-D

I know, I know, there's a potluck at the Radical Vulvas read-through. But still.

I *made* dinner. (Sort of. It's ramin noodles, except with stuff other than ramin-powder for the broth).

My noodle-soup recipe:

Take water.

Add:
basil
coriander
minced garlic
black pepper
1/8 - 1/4 C lime juice
a little bit of soya sauce
sesame oil


noodles
cooked shrimp (or tofu, or beaten egg, or left-over chicken, or whatever)

Boil until noodles are soft-ish.

Turn off the heat.
Optional: drain off some of the broth, depending on how soupy (vs how noodle-bowl-y) you want this to be.

Add:
seaweed (2"x2" bits of nori! YUMMY!)
1+ tbsp red miso paste mooshed up in some water
Optional: green onions, mushrooms sauteed in a bit of sesame oil.
Optional: a dribble of pre-fab thai peanut sauce (or mix a VERY little chili powder and peanut/cashew butter in with the miso paste - more or less same diff).

Stir until the seaweed is soft and the miso solution is well-mixed.

Serve.

Add extra lime juice if desired. :-)





In other news: I wrote a poem today! :-D (I posted it earlier, but I really damn happy I was able to write it! YAY! :-D I have something to read tomorrow night! :-D)


In further news: Have been collecting most of my Sara Poems in order to turn them into a little book about love and lust. I'm missing three. :-P I'm sure I'll find them somewhere. :-)
