STEP 3. Roll out the dough to your desired thickness and cut into noodle shapes using a sharp knife or a pasta machine.
STEP 4. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook for about 2-3 minutes or until they are al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
STEP 5. In a separate pot, combine the low-sodium vegetable broth, low-sodium soy sauce, miso paste, sesame oil, minced ginger, and minced garlic. Bring to a gentle simmer.
