Miso Ramen

A hearty noodle soup with a rich, fermented soybean paste broth.

45 minutes
Serves 4
Lunch/Dinner

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a wok, heat sesame oil over high heat and aggressively stir-fry the bean sprouts until slightly charred but still crunchy.

  2. 2

    Lower the heat, add the miso paste to the wok, and briefly toast it for 30 seconds to deepen its complex flavor.

  3. 3

    Gradually pour the hot chicken or pork broth into the wok, whisking gently to fully dissolve the miso paste, bringing it just below a simmer (do not boil).

  4. 4

    In a separate large pot of boiling water, cook the wavy ramen noodles for 2-3 minutes until pleasantly chewy, then shake dry.

  5. 5

    Divide the noodles among warmed serving bowls and ladle the steaming, fragrant miso broth over them.

  6. 6

    Top the bowls symmetrically with the stir-fried bean sprouts, a spoonful of sweet corn, and a pat of butter that will slowly melt into the broth.
