1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sourdough discard
1/4 cup warm water
1 tbsp miso paste (for an umami depth)
1/2 tsp salt
β‘οΈ How to Make It:
1οΈβ£ Mix & Knead: Combine flour, sourdough discard, water, miso, and salt. Knead for 10 minutes until smooth.
2οΈβ£ Ferment for Flavor: Cover and let rest for 4-6 hours at room temp.
3οΈβ£ Roll & Cut: Roll out the dough and cut into thick udon noodles.
4οΈβ£ Cook & Slurp: Boil for 3-4 minutes, then serve with broth, green onions, and tofu!
