Notes

  • Use a Good Broth: The broth is the heart of the ramen. Use a flavorful base like vegetable broth or miso for the best taste.
  • Cook the Noodles Properly: Follow the package instructions for the noodles. Overcooked noodles will lose their texture.
  • Add Fresh Veggies: Vegetables like spinach, mushrooms, and bok choy add color and crunch to the dish.
  • Don’t Skip the Toppings: Toppings like green onions, sesame seeds, and chili paste give your ramen extra flavor.
  • Customize the Broth: If you like your ramen spicier, add chili oil or red pepper flakes.
