Directions

1. In soup pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat and add onion, carrots, celery and dried herbs let cook/sweat a few minutes with top on. Add mushrooms, stir and let cook. If it starts making a lot of noise, add a bit of chicken stock. When mushrooms have released all of their liquid, add garlic, red pepper flakes, edamame, miso, curry and cream. Stir and cook a few minutes. Add chicken. Cook a few minutes, add salt and pepper to taste. Add a bit of chicken stock if it looks dry/sticking. When it reaches a nice mush of flavor, add stock and bring to a boil. Add noodles and seaweed. The starch will thicken it nicely. Let boil until noodles are done. Serve in bowls with a healthy handful of cilantro on top- enjoy!
