For the stock:

2 celery stalks, chopped
1 large carrot, chopped
1/2 cup dried shiitake mushrooms
1 medium sweet apple, cored, peeled and chopped
4 cloves garlic
1 inch piece of ginger, halved
1 small chili pepper, halved
Small bunch of fresh herbs (cilantro, mint, Thai basil)
1 tbsp black peppercorns
1 tsp whole cloves
1 cinnamon stick
4 star anise
2 slices of orange, peeled
2 liters of cold water
3 tbsp nutritional yeast flakes
1 cup hot water
1 tbsp soy sauce
For the soup:
1 cup mushrooms (brown Shimeji, Enoki or Shiitake)
1 cup green vegetables (bok choy, broccoli, snow peas)
handful of soy sprouts
200g dry noodles of your choice
fresh herbs, chilli slices and lime wedges for garnishing
Instructions
To make the stock first you have to char onions and ginger. Just place a wire cooling rack over the burner, put onions and ginger on top and cook for about 5 minutes on each side.
Put all the ingredients except nutritional yeast and soy sauce in a large pot and cover with 2 litres of cold water. Bring to a boil. Lower the heat and let it simmer uncovered for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
After 1 hour of simmering, mix nutritional yeast with hot water and let it sit for 10 minutes. Pour the liquid into the stock, leaving the sediments in a glass (we want a clear stock). Add soy sauce. Taste for seasoning.
When done, let it cool a bit and then strain. There should be about 1 litre of liquid.
To assemble the soup, cook noodles and blanch the vegetables and mushrooms. Put noodles in a bowl and top with vegetables, mushrooms and bean sprouts. Pour the hot stock. Serve with fresh herbs, chilli slices and lime wedges on a side.
