Equipment

Ingredients
 

For the broth:

  • 1 Chicken carcass some meat left on
  • 1 onion halved
  • 4 cloves garlic chopped
  • 1 inch ginger cut into slices
  • 6 cups (1 l) water
  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml) soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml) white vinegar

For the soft boiled eggs:

  • 2 eggs
  • 3 tablespoons (44 ml) soy sauce

For the ramen:

  • 1/2 tablespoon (7 ml) cooking oil
  • 6 ounces (170 g) thinly sliced shiitake mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup (118 g) shallots minced
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon (7 g) ginger grated
  • 3 tablespoons (51 g) white miso paste
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) lower-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) mirin
  • 1 tablespoons (15 ml) chili oil
  • For garnish: soft boiled eggs green onions, toasted sesame seeds, toasted seaweed

Instructions
 

  • Place the chicken carcass, onion, garlic, and ginger in the Instant Pot with 6 cups water.
  • Close and lock the lid. Set the vent to sealing. Pressure cook on high for 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to a boil. Carefully lower the eggs into the water. Cook at a low boil for 7 minutes. Transfer the eggs to an ice water bath. Once cooled, peel them and set them in a bowl of soy sauce. Occasionally roll the egg around in the soy sauce to marinate all sides. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • When the pressure cook time is up, do a 15-minute pressure release then release remaining pressure. Remove the solids from the stock with a slotted spoon. Strain the broth through a fine mesh sieve. Pull any chicken off the bone. Set the broth and chicken aside.
  • Turn on saute mode on the Instant Pot. Add oil to the pot. When hot, add with mushrooms and saute for 3 minutes. Add the shallots, garlic, and ginger. Saute 2 more minutes.
  • Stir in miso paste, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and chili oil.
  • Add the chicken broth to the pot. Turn the pot to Keep Warm. Set the lid on for 20 minutes.
  • With 5 minutes remaining, add the noodles and the chicken meat. Put the lid back on for 5 minutes.
  • Ladle the ramen into bowls. Slice the soft boiled egg in half and add it to the bowl. Top with other desired garnishes.

Notes

  • The broth and soft-boiled eggs can be prepared in advance and refrigerated until ready to use. This makes assembling the ramen quick and easy for busy weeknights.
  • Be mindful not to overcook the soft-boiled eggs to ensure a creamy yolk consistency. Seven minutes of boiling typically yields the perfect soft-boiled egg, but adjust the cooking time based on personal preference.
  • Ramen is best enjoyed fresh and hot. Serve immediately after assembling to prevent noodles from becoming soggy and toppings from losing their crunch.
  • If you want an easier version, use pre-made chicken stock.
