Tokyo Style Ramen

This Tokyo-style ramen is a rich and flavorful noodle soup, topped with tender chashu pork, marinated soft-boiled eggs, and various toppings.

Ingredients - Serves 4

In a large pot, combine the chicken broth, soy sauce, mirin, sake, ginger, garlic, dried shiitake mushrooms, and dried kelp. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 1 hour.
While the broth is simmering, prepare the chashu pork. Season the pork belly with salt and pepper, then sear it in a hot pan until browned on all sides. Transfer the pork to the pot with the broth and simmer for another hour, until the pork is tender.
Remove the pork from the broth and let it cool slightly. Slice the pork into thin slices.
Cook the ramen noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
To serve, divide the cooked ramen noodles among four bowls. Ladle the hot broth over the noodles. Top with chashu pork slices, sliced green onions, bean sprouts, nori seaweed, and a soft-boiled egg.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
