Cold Noodle Soup with Hoisin Tempeh & Mushrooms

This speedy soup takes its inspiration from kong guksu, Korea's chilled soybean noodle soup - blitzed silken tofu and soya milk stand in for hours of soaked soybeans, so you go from craving to slurping in under 30 minutes. A sticky hoisin tempeh and mushroom topping brings serious umami swagger, while quick-pickled cucumber keeps things bright and crunchy. Consider this your shortcut to summer's most refreshing bowl - no soaking required, just serious cool factor.

I think this is probably the tastiest thing I’ve cooked this year!:) didn’t have oyster mushrooms, used shiitake mushrooms instead and that worked really great also. Will definitely make this one again, thank you!:)

I didn’t have silken tofu so the sauce is a bit more thick with the tofu I used instead but it’s STILL great! Next time will use silken tofu be more soup like. Love the cucumbers!

Glad it still turned out great! Silken tofu next time will def help thin it out. And the cucumbers, so good right? 😊
