Pork Noodle Soup With Ginger and Toasted Garlic Recipe

"This soup, based mostly on pantry staples, can be made with a variety of proteins, noodles and greens depending on what you have on hand Snow pea leaves are exceptional here, which can be found in many Asian grocers year-round, but spinach, Swiss chard or other dark leafy green would work well Don’t skip the raw onion, the soup’s finished complexity depends on it...."
