Instructions

1

Prepare the broth: In a large pot, combine chicken or pork broth, dashi stock, soy sauce, mirin, sake, sugar, garlic, and ginger. Simmer on low heat for 1.5 hours.

2

Cook the eggs: Boil eggs for 6-7 minutes for a soft boil. Immediately transfer to ice water, peel, and marinate in soy sauce and mirin mixture for 30 minutes.

3

Prepare the chashu pork: If using homemade chashu, slice it thinly after braising. Reheat slightly before serving.

4

Blanch the bean sprouts: Quickly boil bean sprouts for 1 minute, then drain and set aside.

5

Cook the noodles: Boil fresh ramen noodles according to package instructions (usually 1-2 minutes). Drain and rinse under cold water to stop cooking.

6

Assemble the ramen: Divide noodles among bowls. Pour hot broth over noodles. Arrange chashu pork, halved soft-boiled eggs, bean sprouts, and green onions on top. Add nori sheet on the side. Drizzle with sesame oil.

Chef's Tips

  • Broth Tip: For extra richness, add a spoonful of lard or chicken fat to the broth.
  • Noodle Tip: Fresh ramen noodles are best, but dried can be substituted in a pinch.
  • Egg Tip: Marinate eggs overnight for deeper flavor.
  • Customization: Add corn, bamboo shoots, or mushrooms for extra toppings.
  • Storage: Broth can be made ahead and frozen for up to a month.
