Ingredients
  

  • 2 servings of ramen noodles dried or fresh
  • Mushrooms of your choice enoki or shiitake or cremini mushrooms work great*
  • A few drops of toasted sesame oil or hot sesame oil

For the kimchi soup broth:

  • 4 cups water
  • 1/2 cup kimchi
  • 2 tsp rice vinegar
  • 2 tsp rice wine or mirin
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • 2 tsp of Season with Spice’s Korean BBQ Blend
  • 2.5 tbsp miso paste I used red miso
  • Salt to taste

For the toppings:

  • 2 tbsp kimchi
  • 1-2 eggs hard-boiled, soft-boiled, or poached eggs
  • 2 green onions – diagonally sliced

Instructions
 

  • Cook the ramen according to package instructions.
  • While the ramen is cooking, take out a separate soup pot or saucepan. Combine water, kimchi, rice vinegar, rice wine/mirin, soy sauce, and our Korean BBQ Blend. Bring it to a boil.
  • Add in mushrooms of your choice. Then lower the heat and let simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender. Keeping it at a low simmer, mix in miso until well dissolved.
  • Season with salt. Taste & adjust any seasonings if needed.
  • Once the noodles are cooked, add them into each serving bowl. Top the noodles with one or two tablespoons of kimchi.
  • Then ladle the soup broth & mushrooms over each bowl. Top with eggs (if using) and green onion. Finish off with a few drops of toasted sesame oil or hot sesame oil.

Notes

1. Enoki mushrooms cook very fast, so I added them in a bit later. If you are using shiitake mushrooms or cremini mushrooms, you can add them in as stated in the recipe.
2. If you use instant ramen, you can skip the separate pot, and cook the noodles right in the soup broth once you bring it to a boil.
