Ingredients
Instructions
Cook the Udon Noodles
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the udon noodles and cook according to package directions until al dente. Drain well and set aside.
Prepare the Garlic Miso Butter Sauce
In a large skillet or wok, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and lightly golden. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
Combine Ingredients
Reduce the heat to low. Add the miso paste, mirin, sake, soy sauce, and sugar to the skillet. Stir constantly with a whisk or spoon until the miso is fully dissolved and the sauce is smooth. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Toss the Noodles
Add the drained udon noodles to the skillet with the sauce. Toss well to ensure the noodles are evenly coated. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring gently, until the noodles are heated through and have absorbed some of the sauce. Season with a pinch of black pepper.
Serve
Transfer the garlic miso butter noodles to serving bowls. Garnish generously with chopped green onions, and if desired, shichimi togarashi and toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
Enjoy!, Pro Tip
For extra richness, you can add a drizzle of sesame oil at the end.
