Finished (click to enlarge). Added egg, Salad Cosmo mung bean sprouts, sesame seeds, chili oil, and shichimi. Noodles had a nice character – a little dense and plump with a minuscule crumble. Broth was about what I would expect a vegetable broth to be, with a strong saltiness. 3.5 out of 5.0 stars.  JAN bar code 4973044020111.
