Yaki Udon

"My Yaki Udon features crispy vegetables and perfectly chewy noodles in a glossy sauce that hits all the right notes. This easy recipe is ready in around 15 minutes and tastes way better than anything you can order for takeout. Why This Recipe Works: A Sprinkle of Food Science Perfect Separated Noodles: We avoid overcooking our noodles and rinse off excess starch to keep them separated and delightfully chewy. Rich Umami Flavor: Tamari + mushrooms + Worcestershire give us the perfect combination that is lick your plate clean good. Use a Wok: The bottom of the pan gets screaming hot giving you a perfect sear and restaurant like flavor (called Wok Hei) that you can't get in a skillet alone. It also helps things cook super quickly. Bonus: Adding the sauce around the edge of the wok hits the hottest part of the pan which helps it reduce and concentrate its flavor."
