Atmosphere
You can do anything with this soup. I did my default of a nice red Zin and some Michael Buble for the tunes.

This is very tasty and the ultimate Chinese comfort food.
Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Bring two cups of chicken broth to a boil and add chicken breast. Turn heat to medium and cook for twenty minutes. Use a meat thermometer, and it's done at 165 degrees. Place on a plate and let cool.
- Slice ham as thin as possible and no more than three inches long.
- Soak the dried mushrooms in hot water, and let sit for twenty minutes. Check to see that they have softened, and if not, drain the water and add more hot water.
- When softened, rinse under cool water, squeezing out excessive water. Slice into thin slices.
- Rinse the white mushrooms and slice thinly.
- Using two forks, shred the chicken.
- Cut the green onion into thin slivers. Add one tsp of oil into a skillet and add the scallions and white mushrooms. Saute until the mushrooms slightly start to brown.
- Place the 1 1/2 quarts of chicken broth in the stock pot. Add the chicken, ham, both types of mushrooms, and green onions.
- Heat on medium and add the sesame oil and white pepper.
- Fill the Dutch oven halfway and cook according to the directions on the pasta. Use only enough pasta for your number of servings.
- Add the pasta to a large bowl for each serving, and add enough soup to cover the pasta. Serve.
Note: This freezes very well. That is a reason not to add pasta so the pasta is fresh every time it is reheated.
The last time I made it I used a quality ramen noodle. Two days later I used Klusky noodles as an experiment and I liked it better. Feel free to use your imagination. Enjoy!
