Directions

STEP 1. In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, water, salt (if using), and hydrocolloid. Mix to form a dough.
STEP 2. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
STEP 3. Roll out the dough to your desired thickness and cut into noodle shapes using a sharp knife or a pasta machine.
STEP 4. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook for about 2-3 minutes or until they are al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
STEP 5. In a separate pot, combine the low-sodium vegetable broth, low-sodium soy sauce, miso paste, sesame oil, minced ginger, and minced garlic. Bring to a gentle simmer.
STEP 6. Prepare your desired toppings by sautéing or cooking them as needed.
STEP 7. To serve, divide the cooked ramen noodles into serving bowls. Ladle the hot broth over the noodles.
STEP 8. Arrange the toppings on top of the noodles and broth.
