Delicious and light tasting and also fairly quick to put together.
The broth is gently flavoured with the dry mushrooms and scallions; I added some soy sauce as I was making this with vegetable stock instead of kombu dashi stock. I used frozen peas - ~1 cup – and added some fresh shiitake as well.
The gentle poaching of the salmon worked beautifully…the fish was moist and added flavour to and was flavoured by the broth. I cooked the soba noodles separately as per the instructions on the preceding page, but frankly, this method took longer than if I had just followed the package directions and it yielded the same results.
It was a very satisfying meal but being rather short on veggies, I didn’t think it was as balanced as it could have been. I’ll have to rectify that next time.
