Hot and Sour Udon Noodle Soup is a delicious Chinese soup ready in less than 15 minutes!
I made this soup a few nights ago and I loved every bit of it, especially how long it takes to make. Want some delicious Chinese soup in less than 15 minutes? Done. You just throw in your soft doughy udon noodles, your vegetables (want more vegetables? pile them in!), your broth and some seasoning and your soup is done.
Can we also talk about how delicious udon noodles are? I found this pack of noodles in my local grocery and immediately knew they were destined to be in a soup.
Enjoy this soup, let me know how you like it!
serves 4
Ingredients
- 6 cups vegetable stock
- 1 1 ⁄3 cups snow peas ends trimmed and cut (can also use frozen peas)
- 1 can baby corn
- 1 bunch chopped bok choy
- 3 green onions white and green parts coarsely chopped
- 1 ⁄4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 ⁄4 cup rice wine vinegar
- 2 1 ⁄2 teaspoon sesame oil
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1 lb udon noodles
Instructions
- In a large pot, combine vegetable stock, snow peas, baby corn, bok choy, green onions, soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil and black pepper to taste. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and cook, uncovered, for 5 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
- Add noodles. Increase heat to medium and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes or until noodles are tender.
Notes
For a more heartier soup you can add broccoli florets, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts or 1 inch cubes of tofu. Add this when you add the bok choy.

Mmmm sounds so good Pamela! I’m actually in snowy Ontario right now and missing my warm California sunshine. This sounds like a perfect meal to make tonight!

Where can I find Udon noodles – thanks!!!
Pamela says
Check out the Asian section of your local grocery. If you have a Asian market you’ll find even better ones in their frozen section.

I love hot and sour soup. The udon makes it so hearty. Delish!
Michelle says
That sounds amazing! The other recipes you listed that you wanted to try sound really good, too…especially: “Baked Portobello Mushrooms” & “Broccoli and Red Peppers with Lime Ginger Soy Sauce” These days I love baking mushrooms for a snack or to puree in my pasta sauce. So yummy!

This looks incredible Pamela! I love a big bowl of steaming udon noodles – this one sounds amazing with all the yummy veggies 🙂 Wish I had a big bowl to slurp on right now to warm up with – yum!
Johlene says
I need to learn to cook vegan meals because sometimes I just dont feel like chicken or a piece of steak (dont get me wrong I couldn´t say goodbye to them forever..) but especially during summer my body craves lighter meals with loads of veggies 🙂 Xx
Shikha @ Shikha la mode says
I am obsessed with noodles, more than bread and rice – it’s crazy. I never make them enough at home, but I should try!
Nora (A Clean Bake) says
Man this looks so filling and satisfying. It’s a perfect spring soup for when it’s still cold out but lots of spring greens are popping up in stores. I have to check out this book!
Monica says
That look so good! I love slurping udon noodles. I like stocking frozen ones that I can simply plop into broth. I’m going to make sure and glad lots of greens and good things next time.
Angie@Angie's Recipes says
I love udon! This noodle soup looks comforting and delicious, Pam.
nobody says
I see the tofu in the picture. But I have to go to the very last line to find the word?
For me hot & sour soup needs lots of tofu.
Pamela says
There is no tofu in the pictures, I think what you’re seeing is the white pieces of the bok choy. Tofu is a great option though to make it heartier so I wanted to be sure to mention that in the notes.

i love udon noodles and this is just perfect 🙂
