Initially, I really wanted to find a pair of fancy chopsticks to put in these noodle bowls so that it would look all authentic and stuff. But then I remembered I’m completely not authentic, and I can barely use chopsticks to pick of foods with a fairly large surface area. Sooo…noodles? Definitely using a fork, people!
It’s ok though because those aren’t the important things in life. What’s important is how EPIC and delicious these bowls are in flavor and texture! I’m currently obsessing over this thing that’s been around forever but I’m just now discovering called miso paste. Anyone else love it? It’s a soybean paste that is typically used as the core of miso soup, but I’m loving adding it to all the things! Especially to these mushrooms and noodles.
As far as the noodles go, there are lots of options out there. 😉 I love using these basic rice noodles! They’re super easy to make and really versatile, so they just soak up all that miso sauce. Perfection! Oh, and they’re gluten-free!
These Miso Roasted Mushroom Noodle Bowls are savory, sweet, and have a slight hint of sour.
The recipe is similar to the Spicy Thai Cashew Chicken Noodles post, but pretty different in flavor (and a lot less spicy!). The noodles are amazing, but the Miso Roasted Mushrooms really take them to another level!
Here’s the recipe:

I may say that this is such a unique noodle recipe, as the noodle will be roasted. I’ll definitely make this at home and see what this tastes like as the looks are really tempting.
