Banyan Empire Spicy Noodle Soup

noodle soup


The Banyan Empire (which climaxed in the late 14th century) was famous for its adventurers, and one of the treasures they brought back to the Greater Mekong Subregion was spicy peppers. The emperors were very excited, and they used them carefully and just for their most bombastic celebrations. Fortunately, we can get hot peppers anywhere, and make a celebratory noodle soup when anything even mildly exciting happens.

"Huzzah! We have half a zucchini left!"

We used:
1/2 of a zucchini
1 onion
a bunch of garlic
several stalks of collard greens
soy sauce
hoisin sauce
the hot salsa from the Tamale House
three pads of wheat noodles


Chop and sautee your vegetables. Dump water into your pan. Add noodles. Add spices or sauces. Rejoice. Consume.

While we were cooking this we were singing: part of Kool and the Gang's "Jungle Boogie" over and over again.
