Before We Start
Use a flavorful broth – This is the base of your ramen. Homemade or store-bought broth works.
Customize toppings – Add what you love, from corn to tofu!
Don’t overcook noodles – Cook separately and add last to avoid sogginess.
Instructions
Make the Broth
Broth recipe: Simmer the vegetables (onion, carrots, celery stalks, cloves garlic, bay leaf, black peppercorns, enough water, salt) or meat (chicken or beef, onion, celery stalks, bay leaf, salt, black pepper, water). Simmer either vegetable or meat broth—water must be plenty—over medium heat for 4-6 hours. Then strain it and freeze it. Use it!
Step 1: Take a pot, wash it, and place it over the stove on medium heat. Add some sesame oil.
Step 2: After a minute, add chopped garlic and ginger. Stir until the aroma comes out for a minute.
Step 3: Add broth now, along with water, soy sauce, and miso paste. Stir well.
Step 4: Bring to a boil for 10 minutes to captivate the flavors together.
Prepare the Toppings
Step 5: Boil eggs for 6-8 minutes for a soft yolk. Peel off the shell and cut the eggs in half.
Step 6: Chop green onions, spinach (and any vegetables you prefer), and slice mushrooms.
Cook the Noodles
Step 7: Take a pot to cook the noodles. Add enough water and cook ramen noodles for 2-3 minutes. Once done, drain and rinse the noodles with cold water to stop cooking and prevent sticking.
Assemble the Ramen
Step 8: Divide the cooked and drained noodles into two bowls.
Step 9: Pour hot broth—whichever you prefer, veggie or meat.
Step 10: Top with the boiled egg, sliced mushrooms, spinach, chicken (optional), and green onions.
Step 11: Sprinkle chili flakes for extra flavors and spice.
It’s ready to serve! Enjoy your ramen soup with your family, and change your tastes with my tasty recipes.
Serve
Take deep bowls with chopsticks along with a deep spoon. Set the bowls on a tray (a wooden one or bamboo mat will go traditionally best). On the side, add some soy sauce.
That’s how you can serve this flavorful ramen soup!
What Goes with Ramen Soup
For a side dish, you can pair:
Kimchi for a tangy, spicy contrast to the broth.
Boiled egg (soft one) also works as a side dish.
Seaweed salad or even pickled vegetables.
Drinks that go with it:
Green tea – A Japanese choice that aids digestion.
Iced matcha latte – I once tried it, and it’s the best, but have it after finishing your ramen soup.

How to Make Chicken/Beef Ramen Soup
Chicken: Boil chicken broth (actually the water you cooked the chicken in) + soy sauce + garlic + ginger + cooked shredded chicken. Mix them into noodles after cooking, cook for 3 minutes, and serve with a topping of boiled eggs.
Beef: Use beef instead of chicken. The process is the same—boil beef broth (the water you cooked the boiled beef in) + thin slices of beef + soy sauce + sesame oil + green onions and simmer for 5 minutes before assembling.
How Can I Make Ramen Soup Spicy?
Well, it is already spicy enough, but:
Use chili oil instead of sesame or olive oil.
Add red pepper flakes or Sriracha.
Mix fresh chopped chilies or spicy miso paste into the soup.
Use Shin Ramen seasoning (red chili powder & flakes, garlic powder, salt & sugar, black pepper) for hot and extra spicy flavor.

Boil 2 cups of water.

Conclusion
First, prepare the broth. Simmer the vegetables (onion, green onions, carrots) + garlic cloves + 1 tsp oil and enough water with spices (black pepper, salt). Boil for 4-6 hours, then strain and use or freeze for later.
Take a pot, heat oil, add garlic and ginger, and stir for a minute. Now, add broth + water + soy sauce + miso paste. Stir well and let it simmer for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, boil the eggs for 6-8 minutes (for a soft yolk), then peel and cut in half. Take sliced mushrooms, green onions, and the vegetables of your choice.
Cook the noodles separately. Fill a pot with water, add ramen noodles, and cook for 2-3 minutes. Then, drain and rinse with cold water, and set aside.
Place empty bowls and divide the noodles into them. Pour the hot broth over the noodles. Top with boiled egg, mushrooms, spinach, chicken, and green onions. Sprinkle chili flakes (if you choose)!
