Critical Success Points

  • Soak the noodles and mushrooms for at least 2 hours.
  • Mix the potato starch with cold water before adding to the broth.
  • Add the vinegar and chili paste at the end of cooking to prevent the flavor from becoming too acidic.

Safety Warnings

  • The broth boils at 100 °C; handle with care to avoid burns.
  • Sesame oil is very hot when added, do not touch it directly.
