Ginger and Miso Broth with Sweet Potato Noodles
This comforting bowl of soup is perfect for the colder months! The broth is inspired by the creamy vegan ramen at an LA-based ramen shop and by using toasted sunflower seeds, it takes on a rich and creamy consistency reminiscent of tonkatsu broth. It’s a simple recipe with the perfect kick of umami and heat for a simple, easy weeknight dinner.
