Miso Ramen Soup

Recipe #292646 | 20 min | 5 min prep | SERVES 5 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: WI Cheesehead

This is from About.com, their Japanese food section. It says, "Ramen noodle in miso based soup is called miso ramen. It's one of the popular flavors of ramen noodles in Japan. Lots of vegetables can be added in this miso ramen recipe." I used homemade chicken stock instead of the water and bouillon originally called for to lower sodium. I adjusted the recipe a bit. I also used an Italian sausage that I took out of the casing, which was about 4 oz. Interestingly, my Japanese loving teenager didn't like this, but my other two younger children loved it!

    I grew up eating ramen and make my own from scratch often. I usually keep frozen charshiu pork handy for using it in ramen, yakisoba, and yakimeshi (Japanese style fried rice). What I did was use my own chicken stock from the freezer and instead of ground pork, I used charshiu pork, soft boiled egg, negi (Japanese long onion) and nori for the topping. Besides the topping, I used what the recipe called for ie cabbage, bean sprouts, and all other seasonings. The result was very good. Normally, ramen stock is made with many ingredients, but this simplified ramen using only chicken stock was very satisfying and very simple to make.
