Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Broth

    In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a gentle simmer. Add the soy sauce and black garlic oil to the broth, stirring to combine.

  2. 2

    Cook the Ramen Noodles

    In a separate pot, bring water to a boil and add the ramen noodles. Cook according to package instructions, typically about 3-4 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Toppings

    While the noodles are cooking, chop the scallions and prepare the soft-boiled eggs by boiling them for 6-7 minutes, then plunging them into ice water before peeling.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Ramen Bowls

    In serving bowls, place a portion of the cooked ramen noodles. Ladle the hot broth over the noodles. Top with menma, soft-boiled eggs, nori, scallions, and corn if using. Drizzle with chili oil to taste.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Enjoy your Shoyu Paitan ramen hot, garnished with additional scallions and black garlic oil if desired.
