Instructions
- 1
Combine chicken broth and dashi in a pot. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Add soy sauce, mirin, and sake. Taste and adjust — the broth should be savory, slightly sweet, and have a clean chicken flavor deepened by dashi.
- 2
Blanch baby spinach in the simmering broth for 30 seconds, remove with a slotted spoon, and set aside.
- 3
Cook ramen noodles in a separate pot of boiling unsalted water according to package directions — typically 90 seconds for fresh, 3 minutes for dried. Drain well.
- 4
Drizzle sesame oil into the ramen broth. Divide noodles into warmed bowls. Ladle hot broth over noodles.
- 5
Top each bowl with shredded chicken, halved egg, blanched spinach, corn, green onion, and a sheet of nori pressed against the inside of the bowl. Season with black pepper. This quick weeknight ramen uses rotisserie chicken for a 30-minute version that still tastes authentic.
