Steps to Make Egg Ramen Boil
- Boil the Eggs:
- Bring a pot of water to a boil. Gently add the eggs and cook for 7-8 minutes for soft-boiled eggs with a slightly runny yolk.
- Remove the eggs from the water and place them in a bowl of ice water to cool for a few minutes. Peel the shells off and set aside.
- Prepare the Broth:
- In a large pot, bring the chicken (or vegetable) broth to a simmer over medium heat.
- Stir in the soy sauce, miso paste (if using), sesame oil, garlic powder, ginger powder, and black pepper. Let the broth simmer for 5-7 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Cook the Ramen Noodles:
- While the broth simmers, cook the ramen noodles according to the package instructions. Drain the noodles and set them aside.
- Assemble the Dish:
- Divide the cooked ramen noodles into two bowls.
- Pour the hot broth over the noodles.
- Cut the boiled eggs in half and place them on top of the ramen.
- Garnish and Serve:
- Add your choice of cooked vegetables, chopped green onions, and any optional toppings like chili oil, sesame seeds, or nori.
