Ingredients

Broth

  • 2 cups vegetable stock
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon white miso paste
  • 1/2 tablespoon red miso paste
  • 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil

Noodles

  • 1 bundle of ramen noodles

Optional Toppings

  • Chopped green onion
  • Sesame seeds
  • Shiitake mushrooms
  • Menma (bamboo shoots)
  • Corn

Instructions

  1. Prepare the broth: Add the vegetable stock to a small pot and bring it to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and stir in the sugar, salt, rice vinegar, white miso paste, and red miso paste until fully combined. Remove from heat to avoid overcooking the miso.
  2. Cook the noodles: While the broth simmers, bring a separate pot of water to a boil over high heat. Cook the ramen noodles according to the package directions until tender but still firm. Drain the noodles thoroughly.
  3. Assemble and serve: Place the cooked noodles in a large bowl. Pour the hot miso broth over the noodles and drizzle with toasted sesame oil. Top with your choice of optional toppings such as chopped green onion, sesame seeds, shiitake mushrooms, menma, and corn. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • For extra protein, consider adding soft tofu or a boiled egg as toppings.
  • Adjust miso quantity to taste, adding more for a richer flavor or less for a lighter broth.
  • Use gluten-free ramen noodles or soba noodles to make the recipe gluten-free if needed.
  • Optional toppings can be customized based on preference or seasonal availability.
