Number of Servings: About 6 cups (48 oz/1.4 liters), 4 servings
Ingredients :
12 ounces (360 g) medium shrimp, peeled
3 tablespoons mirin (Japanese seasoning wine)
2 tablespoons low-sodium tamari soy sauce
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
1/2 teaspoon dark sesame oil
1 teaspoon cornstarch
3 green onions
4 1/2 cups (36 fl oz/1 liter) plus 2 tablespoons defatted low-sodium chicken broth
4 quarter-size slices peeled fresh ginger
3 ounces (90 g) Chinese rice stick noodles
4 ounces (120 g) fresh snow peas, trimmed and cut in half lengthwise (about 1 cup)
Preparation :
1. Using a sharp knife, slice shrimp along the back almost to other edge to reveal the dark vein. Remove the vein and rinse shrimp. Place in a bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons of the mirin, 1 tablespoon of the tamari, the minced ginger and sesame oil. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
2. Combine cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of the chicken broth; stir well and set aside.
3. Thinly slice the green onions, keeping the white parts and green parts separate.
4. Combine the remaining 4 1/2 cups (36 fl oz/1 liter) broth, 1 tablespoon mirin, 1 tablespoon tamari, ginger slices, and the sliced white part of the onion in a large saucepan. Heat over medium-high heat until the broth begins to boil. Cover, reduce the heat, and simmer for 10 minutes.
5. With kitchen shears, snip rice sticks into shorter lengths. Add the rice sticks, shrimp and snow peas to the soup and return to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 2 minutes. Add the cornstarch mixture and cook, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened.
6. Ladle the soup into bowls and sprinkle each with minced green onion tops.
