14 ounces ramen noodles fresh or dried

Instructions

1 In a large pot, combine chicken stock, soy sauce, mirin, sake, garlic, and ginger. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
2 Reduce the heat to low and let the broth simmer for about 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

5 Remove ginger and garlic from the broth and add sesame oil. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional soy sauce if needed.
6 Peel the cooled eggs and slice them in half.
7 Divide cooked noodles into 4 bowls. Ladle the hot broth over the noodles.
8 Top each bowl with a soft-boiled egg, nori strips, bamboo shoots, scallions, and toasted sesame seeds.
9 Serve immediately and enjoy your authentic Japanese ramen with soft-boiled egg.
