Notes
- For storage, keep any leftover Butter Miso Noodles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days to maintain freshness. When reheating, gently warm the noodles in a pan over low heat with a splash of water or broth to prevent them from drying out. For a delightful serving suggestion, top your noodles with additional fresh herbs like cilantro or basil for extra flavor and freshness. As a chef's tip, feel free to experiment with different types of miso paste—white miso is sweeter while red miso adds depth, allowing you to customize the dish to your taste!
