- 1/2 lb vermicelli, or cappellini (very thin pasta)
- 1 quart chicken or vegetable broth

- 1 tsp ginger root, minced
- 1/2 tsp sesame oil
- 1/2 block tofu, firm
- 2 oz cooked chicken (sliced leftovers work well)
Directions
- In a large pot cook vermicelli in abundant boiling water until just done. It should be slightly chewy. Drain and set aside.
- Tear the ends off of the washed spinach leaves and set aside.
- Pour chicken or vegetable broth into a large pot, and bring to a boil. Turn down heat to a simmer, and add cooked pasta, ginger root and sesame oil.
- Stir, then add the spinach leaves, the tofu, and the chicken pieces, if used.
- Turn off the heat, just as soon as all ingredients are heated through and the spinach leaves have wilted.
- Ladle soup into wide shallow bowls, making sure that each bowl has some tofu, some spinach and plenty of broth and noodles.
