  2. Cook the wheat noodles as per the package instructions. Here's a tip for chewier noodles: Pour cold water into the pot when it begins to boil. After cooking, drain the noodles and rinse them under cold running water.
  3. In individual serving bowls, add the noodles and then pour the tofu soy milk broth over them. To make it extra refreshing, add some ice cubes. Garnish with cucumber slices and tomatoes. Hard-boiled eggs also make a great addition.
