Broth Ingredients
- 4 cups water
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
Noodles and Garnishes
- 200 g ramen noodles
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 2 slices nori (dried seaweed)
Instructions
- Prepare the Broth: In a medium pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Once boiling, add 2 teaspoons of salt, 1 teaspoon of soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon of sesame oil to create a flavorful broth base. Stir to combine and maintain a gentle boil while preparing the noodles.
- Cook the Noodles: Add 200 grams of ramen noodles to the boiling broth and cook them according to the package instructions, usually about 3-5 minutes until tender but still springy. Once cooked, strain the noodles carefully to remove excess water and divide them evenly into two serving bowls.
- Assemble the Ramen: Pour the hot seasoned broth over the noodles in each bowl, ensuring they are well covered. Garnish with the chopped green onions and place the slices of nori on top for added flavor and texture. Serve immediately while hot.
Notes
- Adjust salt level in the broth to taste if needed, especially if using low-sodium soy sauce.
- For a richer broth, consider adding a dash of dashi or chicken broth seasoning.
- Additional toppings like boiled eggs or sliced mushrooms can be added for extra flavor.
- Use fresh green onions for best taste and texture.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the noodles at their best texture.
