How to Make Savory Greens & Mushroom Tossed Noodles

1. Cook the Noodles

Start by bringing a large pot of water to a boil and cooking the noodles according to the package instructions.

2. Heat the Oil

While the noodles are cooking, heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the neutral oil.

3. Cook the Mushrooms

Once the oil is hot, add the fresh mushrooms to the skillet, seasoning them with the sea salt and pepper. Let them cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are browned and slightly crispy.

4. Add Garlic

Add the thinly sliced garlic to the skillet and cook for about 1 minute, just until fragrant.

5. Add Spinach

Toss in the baby spinach and let it wilt for about 30 seconds.

6. Combine Noodles and Sauce

When the noodles are done, drain them and add them directly into the skillet with the mushroom and spinach mixture. Pour in the light soy sauce, Ultimate Chili Oil, honey, dark soy sauce, and toasted sesame oil.

7. Finish with Butter

Add the unsalted butter for a rich, velvety finish.

8. Serve

Toss everything thoroughly in the skillet to ensure the noodles are well-coated and the flavors are evenly distributed. Serve immediately and enjoy the savory, satisfying blend of greens and mushrooms with perfectly seasoned noodles.

Pitfalls and tips

Finishing Touches

Drizzle with sesame oil and garnish with fresh herbs like green onions or cilantro for fragrance, richness, color, and freshness.

Sauce Balance

Taste and adjust the sauce's balance of soy, oyster sauce, and rice vinegar to fine-tune the savory, sweet, and tangy elements before combining with the noodles.

Noodle Selection and Preparation

Choose the right type of noodle like udon, soba, or a thicker variety of spaghetti for the best texture. Cook to al dente and rinse under cold water to prevent sticking.

Umami Boost

Enhance umami with soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Consider miso paste or fish sauce for an extra punch, but be mindful of dietary restrictions.

Mushroom Variety

Use a mix of fresh mushrooms and consider wild varieties for depth of flavor. Sauté in batches to avoid crowding and achieve proper browning.
