Steps:

• Cook noodles per package directions; drain.
• Add garlic, pepper, and broth to a large saucepan; bring to a boil.
• Lower heat, and simmer 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Cut steaks crosswise into 1/4-inch thick strips; cut strips in half. Heat 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add ginger and garlic; cook for 1 minute. Add half of the beef and stir-fry for 2 minutes, or until the outside surface of the beef is no longer pink. Remove from skillet. Repeat with remaining oil and beef. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Remove from skillet and keep warm.
• Add broth, green onions, and mirin to skillet and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 8 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, divide noodles and beef evenly among 4 large soup bowls.
• Bring broth mixture to a boil over high heat. Ladle boiling mixture evenly over beef and noodles. Garnish with carrots.

Steps:

• Whisk soy sauce, vegetable oil, brown sugar, ginger, and garlic powder together in a large bowl. Pierce flank steak several times with a large fork. Place in the bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let marinate in the refrigerator, at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook udon noodles in boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, 13 to 14 minutes. Drain.
• Heat a large skillet over high heat. Remove steak from marinade and cook until well-browned, about 2 minutes per side. Reserve marinade.
• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Grill steak, basting with half of the reserved marinade, until internal temperature reaches 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium or 150 degrees F (65 degrees C) for medium-well, at least 10 minutes per side. Slice steak thinly against the grain.
• Combine remaining marinade, snow peas, broccoli florets, and mirin in the skillet. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until snow peas are tender, about 2 minutes. Add drained noodles; mix well to combine.
• Divide noodle mixture among large bowls. Top with steak slices.

Steps:

• Combine chicken or steak with 2/3 cup teriyaki sauce and marinate for 3 hours in the refrigerator. If using flank steak, shallowly score one side with a knife to allow a bit more flavor to penetrate the meat.
• Remove meat from the marinade and heat a grill pan or skillet with a medium-high flame. Once heated, add either the chicken or beef and grill/cook until cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees (for the chicken) or to desired level of doneness (for the beef). Once done, remove from the heat to a plate and then tent with foil. Set aside.
• Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet until the oil is shimmering. Add the carrots and broccoli and stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes. Add the celery and onion and stir-fry for another 2 minutes. Next, add the water chestnuts, garlic and ginger. Stir-fry until the veggies are crisp tender.
• Meanwhile, put on a large pot of water to boil and cook the udon noodles according to the package's instructions (al dente). Reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking water and then drain and rinse the udon under cold water to remove gumminess.
• Add the noodles to the hot skillet along with the remaining 2/3 cup teriyaki sauce and 1/2 cup of the reserved pasta water. Reduce heat to medium and start tossing the udon, vegetables and sauce together.
• Simmer for a minute. If you're serving flank steak, take this moment to slice it thinly. You can either add the flank steak/chicken directly to the pan and toss or else dish up the udon and top with grilled steak or chicken. Serve in bowls and garnish with green onions.

Steps:

• Cook pasta in large saucepan as directed on package, adding vegetables to the boiling water for the last 2 min.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in large nonstick skillet. Add meat; cook until browned on all sides, stirring occasionally. Stir in dressing and teriyaki sauce; cook 2 min. or until sauce is thickened, stirring occasionally.
• Drain pasta mixture; place in large serving bowl. Add meat mixture; toss to coat.

Steps:

• Make the broth: In a large pot, bring 8 cups water to a boil over high heat. Add scallion, dried mushrooms, seaweed (if using), ginger, garlic, fresh mushroom trimmings and salt. Reduce heat to a gentle simmer and cook for 20 minutes. Strain and set aside.
• Meanwhile, in a separate pot, cook udon noodles until al dente, then drain, rinse well with cold water, and keep at room temperature.
• In a soup pot, melt butter over medium-high heat and swirl to coat the bottom of the pot. Add leeks and sliced shiitake and cook, stirring, until softened, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add ginger, garlic, mirin, sesame oil and soy sauce and cook for 1 minute. Turn heat to high, add reserved broth and bring to a simmer.
• Add bok choy and reserved noodles and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until greens are cooked and noodles are heated through. Gently stir in miso and tofu. Turn off heat.
• Using tongs, divide noodles among 4 to 6 bowls. Ladle hot soup over noodles. Sprinkle with scallions and serve. Pass togarashi or crushed red pepper at the table.
