Place sardines or kombu in a large Dutch oven or donabe,
fill with 6 cups water, and set aside at least 15 minutes
or up to 1 hour.
Meanwhile, cook spinach in a medium pot of boiling salted
water until just cooked through, about 1 minute. Using a
slotted spoon, transfer to paper towels. Gently squeeze
water from spinach, then transfer to a cutting board and
cut into 2" slices. Transfer to a plate. Return liquid to
a boil, add snow peas, and cook until just cooked
through, about 1 minute. Drain and transfer to plate with
spinach. Wipe out pot and reserve.
Bring sardine liquid to a simmer over medium-high heat.
Using slotted spoon, discard sardines, then reduce heat
to medium. Add chicken and simmer until cooked through,
about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms, tofu (if using), soy
sauce, mirin, and remaining 3/4 tsp. salt. Cook,
stirring, until mushrooms are tender, 3-5 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook udon in reserved pot 2 minutes less than
package directions.
Bring chicken mixture to a simmer. Drain noodles and add
immediately to pot. Add spinach, snow peas, scallions,
and fish cake (if using), arranging each into sections
and leaving an opening for egg.
Gently beat eggs in a small bowl with a whisk or
chopsticks. Pour into broth and cook until just set,
about 2 minutes.
Serve soup immediately in pot tableside, portioning into
individual bowls.
COOKS' NOTE: Fried tofu (aburaage) and Japanese fish cake
are available at Asian markets and some specialty grocery
stores.
