Shoyu Ramen with Woodear Mushrooms

Ingredients

  • 2 cups miso broth (or broth of choice)
  • 1 pack dried ramen noodles
  • 1/2 packet ramen seasoning (optional) or 1 tsp dashi powder
  • 1/2 tsp red chili flakes (adjust to taste)

Optional additions

  • 1 soft-boiled egg (seasoned)
  • 2 oz sliced pork (chashu or cooked pork belly)

Directions

  1. In a pot, bring the miso broth to a boil over medium heat. If using, stir in the ramen seasoning packet or dashi powder for extra depth of flavor.

  2. Add the dried ramen noodles to the boiling broth and cook for 3-4 minutes (or as directed on the package). Stir occasionally.

  3. In a separate pot, bring water to a boil. Add the woodear mushrooms and blanch for 4 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  5. Top the ramen with a soft-boiled egg, chopped chives, sliced pork, and a spoonful of chili paste for an extra kick.
