The original recipe calls for marinated chicken and vegetables, but since my patient couldn’t chew, I made this just with the sauce and the noodles. Adapted from “A Spoonful of Ginger” by Nina Simonds (Knopf, 1999, $30).

INGREDIENTS

  • 1/2 pound Chinese flour-and-water noodles or linguine

  • 2 1/4 cups chicken broth (may substitute low-sodium broth)

  • 7 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce (may substitute low-sodium soy sauce)

  • 3 tablespoons rice wine or sake

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar

  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

  • 2 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch

    DIRECTIONS

    Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the noodles and cook until nearly tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain, rinse lightly to remove the starch and drain again.

    Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the remaining ingredients and stir to combine. Cook, stirring continuously to prevent lumps, until it thickens. Add the cooked noodles and toss lightly to heat through. Serve immediately.
