A quick and easy creamy miso butter ramen featuring a silky broth and perfectly soft-boiled eggs, ideal for cozy nights and comforting meals.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ounces (115 grams) ramen noodles (fresh or dried)
  • 2 tablespoons white miso paste
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 3 cups (720 ml) low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon mirin (or a pinch of sugar)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
  • 2 stalks green onions, thinly sliced
  • 2 large soft-boiled eggs
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Soft-Boiled Eggs (about 7 minutes): Bring water to a gentle boil in a medium saucepan. Lower eggs slowly with a slotted spoon. Boil for exactly 6 minutes for a slightly runny yolk, then transfer eggs immediately to an ice bath to stop cooking. Let them chill for 5 minutes before peeling carefully.
  2. Make the Broth (10 minutes): In another saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and grated ginger; sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned. Pour in 3 cups (720 ml) of low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth. Stir in 2 tablespoons white miso paste, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon mirin. Whisk until miso is fully dissolved. Let the broth simmer gently for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Cook the Ramen Noodles (3-4 minutes): Meanwhile, boil water in a small pot. Add ramen noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente (typically 3 minutes for fresh noodles). Drain and set aside.
  4. Combine and Serve: Divide noodles between two bowls. Ladle the hot, creamy miso butter broth over the noodles. Halve the soft-boiled eggs and gently place on top. Garnish with sliced green onions, a drizzle of sesame oil, and sprinkle toasted sesame seeds if using.

Notes

If broth tastes too salty, add a splash of water or unsalted broth. Whisk miso paste into broth off the heat to avoid bitterness. Peel soft-boiled eggs gently under running water. Use fresh grated ginger for best flavor. For dairy-free, substitute butter with vegan margarine or coconut oil. For gluten-free, use gluten-free noodles and tamari instead of soy sauce.
