Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb pork belly or pork shoulder, thinly sliced use boneless
  • 1 tbsp neutral oil canola or vegetable
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper freshly ground
  • 6 cup low-sodium chicken broth or pork broth
  • 1 oz dried shiitake mushrooms reconstituted
  • 4 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 0.5 cup white miso paste shiro miso
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce low sodium if preferred
  • 1 tbsp mirin
  • 1 tsp granulated sugar balances miso
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 12 oz fresh or dry ramen noodles
  • 4 large eggs soft-boiled
  • 0.5 cup scallions, thinly sliced green parts
  • 1 cup corn kernels thawed if frozen
  • 2 cup baby spinach
  • 2 sheet nori cut into strips
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
  • 1 tsp chili oil optional, to taste

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Make soft-boiled eggs: Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Gently lower eggs into the water and cook 6.0 minutes for jammy yolks. Transfer to an ice bath for 5.0 minutes, then peel and set aside.
  • Rehydrate shiitakes: Place dried shiitakes in a heatproof bowl and cover with 1.0 cup hot broth from the total. Steep 10.0 minutes, then slice mushrooms. Reserve the soaking liquid.
  • Season pork with salt and pepper. Heat neutral oil in a large pot over medium-high. Sear pork in two batches until browned and just cooked, 4.0 to 6.0 minutes total. Transfer pork to a plate.
  • Build the broth: In the same pot, add remaining broth, reserved mushroom soaking liquid (avoid any grit), garlic, ginger, soy sauce, mirin, and sugar. Bring to a simmer and cook 20.0 minutes.
  • Whisk in miso: Ladle 1.0 cup hot broth into a bowl and whisk with miso until smooth. Stir the miso mixture back into the pot. Add sliced shiitakes and sesame oil. Keep broth hot without boiling.
  • Cook noodles: In a separate pot of boiling water, cook ramen according to package directions until just tender. Drain well.
  • Warm toppings: Add spinach and corn to the hot broth for 1.0 to 2.0 minutes until just tender. Return seared pork to the pot to warm through.
  • Assemble: Divide noodles among 4 bowls. Ladle over miso pork broth with pork, mushrooms, spinach, and corn. Halve eggs and place on top. Garnish with scallions, nori strips, sesame seeds, and a drizzle of chili oil.
  • Taste and adjust salt or soy sauce as needed. Serve immediately while piping hot.

Notes

For the best flavor, avoid boiling the broth after adding miso to keep it silky and fragrant. Swap pork for chicken or tofu as desired. Use low-sodium broth, then season to taste at the end.
