Chicken broth with buckwheat noodles

Ingredients (serves 8):
For the broth:
1 chicken
2 onions
2 carrots
1 stalk of celery
5 g ground black pepper
4 L cold water
6 g salt
45 ml Jang Sauce
20 ml extra-virgin olive oil

For the buckwheat noodle:
500 ml water
100 g buckwheat flour
2.5 g xanthan gum
2 g salt

Preparation
For the broth:
1. Peel and dice the onions and carrots and dice the celery. Cut the chicken into quarters. In a stock-pot with 20 milliliters of olive oil, cook the diced vegetables until they soften. Add the chicken quarters and brown well.

2. Cover the vegetables and the chicken with 4 liters of water and bring to a boil. Once boiling, lower the flame and simmer gently for two hours.

3. Remove the chicken from the broth and adjust with salt and pepper to taste. Strain and add 45 milliliters of Jang Sauce to the broth.

For the buckwheat noodles:
1. Bring 500 milliliters of water to boil in a saucepan. Add the buckwheat flour while whisking continuously. Add the salt and allow to cook for 5 minutes. You should have a dense uniform batter with no lumps.

2. Add the xanthan gum to the batter and blend with an electric blender until smooth.

3. Transfer the buckwheat batter into a squeeze bottle and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Presentation
1. Heat the broth and serve in a soup dish. Gently squeeze the buckwheat batter into the soup, forming a spiral, as if it were a noodle.
