Looks good Del (er… Marco:));)
I will say the Waga unclear broth in the last food pic post of mine was pretty friggin' A. I would seriously like to know how it was made.
Alas, I will never find out.:(

Use up the herbs before they go off. The Thai basil you see there changes colour when it hits heat so probably shouldn't be used as a garnish like that. But it is incredible stuff and you need it in your life.
Pho broth this time with Udon noodles rather than rice. Expensive but good.

Those Udons are different to the ones we use, which are 'round' and somewhat 'snake-like', not flat: https://www.google.com/search?q=udon...ln-mDYM:&vet=1
Wonder which ones are the genuine variety?:hmm:
Anyway, your broth looks the biz!:cool:

Sure, Neil. I'm no expert on Japanese food, but I'm just wondering what shape/texture represents authentic Udon noodles... This is the 'fresh' form we get them in, from an Asian supermarket in Liverpool:

...which look quite different to those Justers used. Now I know his were dry, but they were also flat, whereas the ones above are rounded, and 'worm-like' in shape. So I can also imagine the texture being quite different. Perhaps there are different types of Udons?:hmm:
It's no biggie, but maintaining authenticity with any cuisine is something I'm quite focussed on, and so like to get it as right as I can:)

P.S Ours weren't expensive either, as they weren't bought from a poncy deli/supermarket:ner:;) We get four of those packets, shown above, for £1.60!
