Rainy Day Ramen

By Moodie Chef

Some days the weather makes the decision for you. It is raining, you are not going anywhere, and the only reasonable response is a bowl of ramen that takes thirty minutes and asks nothing of you except a little patience with the soft-boiled eggs.

This miso ramen is simple enough for a weeknight slump but feels like something you would order at a tiny place with steamed-up windows. The broth comes together fast from good stock and white miso. Do not rush the miso in -- whisk it gently so it does not clump.
