Directions
Chickpea Soup for the Vegan Soul. A great soup for when you’re feeling under the weather and need something tasty to slurp on while you watch TV and pity yourself. But don’t let that dissuade you if you feel fine and just happen to want a nice, comforting bowl of soup.
Steps

Preheat a soup pot over medium-high heat. Sauté the onion and carrot in the oil for about 10 minutes. Add the garlic, mushrooms, celery seeds, and herbs, and sauté for another 5 minutes. Deglaze the pot with the mirin (or just a splash of water). Add the water or broth and the chickpeas. Cover and bring to a boil. |

Once the broth is boiling, break the soba noodles into thirds and throw them in. Lower the heat to medium so that the soup is at a low boil. Cover and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. |
