Miso Vegetable Soup

0 Place a large stockpot over medium heat. Add the cooking oil. When the oil begins to shimmer, add carrots with a pinch of salt. Saute the carrots until tender around the edges, 5 minutes. 
1 To the carrots, add ginger and white miso. Stir a few times to combine.  
2 Slowly pour the water and Tamari over the carrots and bring to a simmer. 
3 Add the noodles to the soup and simmer until tender.
4 Move the soup off the heat and stir in chopped green onions. 
5 Taste the soup and add some soy sauce if you’d like it more salty.
6 Ladle soup into bowls. Top with a drizzle of toasted sesame oil, chili crisp, or hot sauce.
