Bacon Ramen Recipe



INGREDIENTS:

  • 4 cups water
  • 2 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
  • 3¼" slices ginger
  • 6 slices bacon
  • oil, to fry
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon mirin
  • salt, to taste
  • 2 servings ramen noodles, from dry, fresh, or frozen, cooked according to package
  • chopped fresh spinach, to serve
  • togarashi, Japanese spice blend, to serve
  • green onions, sliced, to serve
  • soft-boiled eggs, to serve
  • black sesame seeds, to serve

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Combine water, garlic, ginger, and bacon in a medium saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to a strong simmer/low boil. Let cook together for 30 minutes.
  2. Strain out aromatics and bacon and separate boiled bacon. Discard ginger and garlic. In a skillet over medium heat, add a glug of oil (vegetable, if you're into that; olive; coconut--whatever, really, as long as it doesn't have a very strong taste) and fry bacon until browned. Add salt to re-flavor your bacon. Remove from heat and slice into bite-size pieces.
  3. Add soy sauce and mirin to broth then salt to taste. Place noodles in serving bowl and ladle broth over. Garnish with desired toppings and serve.
