Tsukimi Udon Soup Noodles (No Broth-Making Needed)

Steps

1. 1
   Prepare frozen udon noodles; if using regular chilled udon instead, keep an eye on the cooking time to prevent it from becoming too soft.
2. 2
   Bring water to a boil, add the udon noodles, and cook until they reach your desired texture, then drain.
3. 3
   In a bowl, mix bonito soy sauce with hot water to create the soup base, replacing the need for a traditionally simmered bonito broth.
4. 4
   Place the cooked udon into the soup base, then crack a raw egg on top to create the classic 'moon-viewing' presentation.
5. 5
   Once plated, enjoy this simple yet delicious tsukimi udon soup noodle.
