Saimin Soup

Description
A traditional Hawaiian noodle soup.

Ingredients

 * 1 lb fresh saimin noodles or somen noodles or other fine white-flour noodles
 * 4 cups dashi
 * 1 bunch spinach, chopped
 * 4 ounces kamoboko, thinly sliced (japanese fish cake)
 * 8 ounces Char siu Pork, thinly sliced (chinese roasted Pork)
 * 6 scallions, trimmed and chopped
 * shoyu (pepper)
 * 2 beaten eggs (optional)
 * soy sauce

Directions
Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat, add noodles and cook until tender but firm, about 3 minutes. Drain noodles and divide evenly between 4 large, deep soup bowls. While noodles cook, heat dashi over medium heat until simmering but not boiling, (stir in beaten eggs- optional). Evenly divide spinach between the bowls of noodles, then ladle about 1 cup dashi into each bowl. Garnish soup with slices of fish cake and Pork. Scatter scallions on top and season with shoyu. Serve with soy sauce.
