Miso Ramen

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon light sesame oil
• 2 garlic cloves (minced)
• 2 green onions (sliced)
• 4 cups dashi broth (or chicken stock)
• 3 tablespoons miso paste
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons mirin
• Bok choy (chopped)
• 6 oz ramen noodles (fresh or dried )

Instructions

1. 1

   In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sliced green onions, and sauté until fragrant, about a minute.

2. 2

   Add the dashi broth or chicken stock to the pot and bring to a boil.

3. 3

   Reduce heat to a simmer and add the miso paste, soy sauce, and mirin to the pot. Stir well to combine and dissolve the miso paste.

4. 4

   Add the chopped bok choy and fresh or dried ramen noodles to the pot. If using dried noodles, break them in half before adding to the pot. Stir well to ensure that the noodles are submerged in the broth.

5. 5

   Cover the pot and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes until the noodles are tender and cooked through. If using fresh noodles, they may only take 1 to 2 minutes to cook.

6. 6

   Once the noodles are cooked, ladle the miso broth and bok choy over the noodles and serve hot.
