yea pretty much! it is a japanese version of dan dan noodles but with a sesame-heavy broth. there is a great local tofu producer near me which sells soy milk that definitely has a savory almost funkiness, and i use that to thin out a fairly strong paste of miso, sesame paste, dark soy sauce, ginger, and garlic. a nice make ahead dish for a hot day!
Woah! This looks incredible. This is like a walnut, sesame, miso soup right?
