📝 Preparation Steps
1
Prepare your noodles – if you’re using the shiratake noodles, they don’t need to be cooked, but drain and rinse them. They have sort of a funky smell, so I recommend shocking them in boiling water for ⏱️ 30 seconds. Then drain and rinse (again) in cold water. Set aside until you’re ready to use them.
2
In a large skillet (I used a stainless one where the sides of it are 4 or so inches high), splash a bit of olive oil. When it’s hot, add the mushrooms and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they have wilted down, 5 or so minutes. Toss in the kale, ginger, garlic, and scallions. Sauté for a few minutes until the kale starts to wilt down but the garlic is not burning. Turn the heat down if garlic and ginger are starting to burn.
3
Add the broth, edamame, and noodles and simmer for a few minutes. If your veggies are soaking up all your broth, add more.
4
Turn off the heat and stir in the soy sauce, basil, mint, lime juice, and red pepper flakes, if using. Taste and adjust seasonings.
5
Ladle in to bowls and finish with a drizzle of toasted sesame oil and a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Top with cooked salmon, if using.

To cook the salmon: Season the fish with salt, pepper, and olive oil and press some sesame seeds on top. In a hot skillet, place the salmon, sesame seed side down, and sear so a light crust forms – 2 or so minutes. Some sesame seeds will fall off, that’s ok. Flip the salmon and continue cooking until it’s more (but not completely) opaque in the middle, about 4-6 more minutes. Serve on top of bowls of ginger noodles. Sprinkle with more sesame seeds if some have fallen off.
