Miso And Seaweed Ramen With Egg Food

EASY MISO RAMEN WITH SOY MARINATED EGGS

Steps:

• For the eggs: Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the eggs, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook 6 minutes. Drain and run under cool water until cool, then peel.
• Combine the soy sauce, sake and sugar with 1 cup water in a medium bowl and stir to dissolve the sugar. Add the eggs and place plastic wrap directly on the surface to help submerge the eggs. Cover and refrigerate at least 6 hours and up to overnight.
• For the soup: Heat the sesame oil in large saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic, ginger and half of the scallions (reserve the rest for garnish) and cook, stirring often, until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the sriracha and stir, 30 seconds. Stir in the miso, then gradually add the chicken broth and 2 cups water, whisking. Simmer, partially covered, 10 minutes. Whisk in the butter and season with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Slice the marinated eggs in half.
• Cook the noodles according to their package instructions. Drain and divide among 4 bowls. Divide the soup among the bowls and top with the egg halves, remaining scallions and seaweed. Serve immediately.

MISO AND SEAWEED RAMEN WITH EGG

Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot, heat 2 tablespoons of neutral oil over medium. Add mushrooms and ¼ cup of the scallions, and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and stir until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add miso and soy sauce, and cook over medium-low, stirring constantly, until the mushrooms have absorbed the liquid and the miso is caramelized and deep golden brown, about 2 minutes.
• Add 8 cups of water and the seaweed, and bring to a boil over high heat, stirring to dissolve the miso and lift up any browned bits on the bottom of the pot. Partly cover, reduce heat to medium and simmer until mushrooms and seaweed are tender and broth is slightly reduced, about 15 minutes. Season to taste with salt.
• Meanwhile, bring a large saucepan of water to a boil, and cook noodles according to package instructions. Drain and immediately divide among 4 bowls.
• Reduce heat to medium-low and crack the eggs into the pot with the broth, leaving some space in between the eggs. Cover and poach until whites are just set and yolks are still runny, about 3 minutes.
• As the eggs cook, combine the remaining ½ cup scallions, remaining 2 tablespoons neutral oil, sesame oil, sesame seeds and ginger in a small bowl, and season with salt. Mix well.
• Divide the broth and eggs among the bowls. Drizzle each with some of the sesame-ginger sauce, and serve warm.
