Ingredients
Scale
Main Protein and Flavor Base:
- 32 ounces (907 grams) bone broth
- Sliced mushrooms (as desired)
Seasoning Spices:
- 12 pinches garlic powder
- 12 pinches ground ginger
- 12 teaspoons sesame oil
Garnish:
- Sliced green onions (as desired)
Instructions
- Prepare a spacious cooking vessel and ignite the stovetop to medium-high temperature, pouring the bone broth into the pot.
- Once the liquid reaches a vigorous bubble, diminish the heat to create a gentle, rolling simmer.
- Introduce aromatic elements by sprinkling garlic powder and ginger into the simmering broth, allowing their essence to permeate the liquid.
- Drizzle sesame oil across the surface, enhancing the soup’s depth and complexity.
- Gracefully slide thinly sliced mushrooms into the broth, watching them dance and absorb the surrounding flavors.
- Scatter fresh green onions throughout the mixture, adding a vibrant layer of color and sharp, crisp notes.
- Allow the soup to gently bubble and meld, stirring occasionally to ensure even distribution of ingredients and prevent sticking.
- Monitor the mushrooms’ transformation, waiting until they become tender and translucent, which typically requires 10-15 minutes of patient simmering.
- Remove from heat and ladle the steaming, fragrant soup into warm serving bowls, capturing the rich, earthy essence of the carefully prepared broth.
Notes
- Choose fresh, high-quality mushrooms like shiitake or oyster for deeper, richer flavor profiles.
- Slice mushrooms uniformly to ensure even cooking and consistent texture throughout the soup.
- Experiment with different bone broths like chicken, beef, or vegetable to customize the soup’s base and nutritional content.
- For a vegan version, substitute bone broth with vegetable stock and add extra umami by including miso paste or dried seaweed.
