Baby Bok Choy and Beef Noodle Soup with Warm Spices
Peppery, piquant and with a slight lemony edge, fresh ginger invigorates any dish to which it is added. This simple meal-in-a-bowl gets its warm flavor from ginger, as well as from cinnamon and star anise. Garlic and chili paste lend pungency; chewy noodles and tender slices of beef add heartiness.

Awesome, and yes, Asian!
February 6, 2012
With regard to the last review, this dish is actually quite authentic in Asian flavors, however not the typical flavors you would have at an American Chinese restaurant. This dish uses the traditional Chinese five-spice blend of flavors, and it is fabulous. It has some serious kick, so if you are not a fan of spicy foods, you might steer clear. I substituted cabbage for the bok choy since I had it on hand, and it was great. We'd been craving five-spice soup and this fit the bill wonderfully!
Pros: Healthy, Impressive, Will Make Again

Horrible! Weird flavors.
February 4, 2012
This dish was horrible! In no way is this Asian. Its basically beef and noodles in a cinnamon soup! Though my house smells pleasant from the cinnamon and ginger, I couldn't stomach the bizarre flavors of this dish.
Cons: Taste, Ingredients

Turn up the heat!
January 15, 2012
This is a fantastic taste experience! A bit spicy for the timid, however perfect for a meduim heat lover. Didn't find whole star anise and used a few whole cloves and 1/4 tsp of caraway seed to substitute. Also made it with coconut oil not canola (that stuff is bad for you). Also used rice noodles to make it gluetin free.
It makes a nice large pot, next time I will set aside some stock and raw bok choy for another day. The bok choy cooks quickly so watch the pot. Going back for seconds the bok choy was overdone for me. This is a wonderful soup and will be saved as a new favorite.
