Miso Butter Mushroom Yaki Udon

1

Prepare the udon noodles according to the package instructions (usually boiling for 1 minute), then drain and set aside.

2

In a small bowl, whisk together the white miso paste, soy sauce, and mirin until smooth to create the sauce base.

3

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter.

4

Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan and sauté for 5 minutes until they are browned and tender.

5

Stir in the minced garlic and scallion whites, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.

6

Add the drained noodles and the miso sauce mixture to the pan. Toss vigorously for 2-3 minutes to coat the noodles and caramelize the sauce slightly.

Turn off the heat and stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and sesame oil until melted and glossy.

Serve immediately topped with the reserved scallion greens and plenty of black pepper.
