In a bowl, add 1 cup of all-purpose flour and 1/4 teaspoon of salt and mix.

Add about 1/4 cup of hot water and 1 tablespoon of grapeseed oil to the flour mixture and mix.

Drizzle in hot water until the dough comes together, using between 1/3 cup and 1/2 cup of hot water.

Once the dough comes together, turn it out onto a work surface and knead for 5 to 10 minutes until smooth and springs back.

Place the kneaded dough back in the bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rest for at least 15 to 20 minutes.

Prepare the broth by adding 1 green onion, a 4 inch piece of carrot (cut into chunks), 3 cloves of mashed garlic, 3 whole dried anchovies, a 5 by 3 inch piece of dried kelp, and 3 dried shiitake mushrooms to 8 cups of simmering water.

Cover the pot and let it boil and simmer on medium to medium-low heat for 15 to 20 minutes.

After simmering, turn off the heat and let the broth steep for another 10 to 15 minutes.

Strain the broth into another pot, pressing out the shiitake mushrooms with a wooden spoon to extract flavor.

Chop the soaked shiitake mushrooms and add them back to the pot along with 3 cloves of sliced garlic, 1 small julienned squash (zucchini), and the whites of 2 scallions.

Bring the broth back to a rolling simmer and cook for about 5 minutes with a lid on.

Add soup soy sauce to the broth for seasoning, and optionally add beef dashi or mushroom dashi for extra flavor.

Add the julienned zucchini and cook covered for about 1 minute.

Hand tear the rested dough into thin noodle pieces and add them to the simmering broth.

Mix the noodles into the broth and cook for about 1 to 2 minutes until they float to the surface, indicating they are done.

Add the greens of the scallions, cover, and let it boil and gently simmer for about 1 to 3 minutes depending on noodle thickness.
