How to make homemade ramen?

But let’s start with the basics! There are three main components to a good and delicious Ramen Soup:

Starting with the broth for this recipe the key ingredient here is definitely tahini! It creates a rich and hearty flavor in addition to the vegetable broth. But also the soy sauce, the rice vinegar and the shiitake mushrooms help to balance the flavor of the broth very well and are major ingredients that should not be left out!

Regarding the noodles, I used white flour ramen noodles for this recipe in order to keep it fully plant-based. However, yellow egg noodles would be a delicious option as well and do really work well in here too. Also, I personally found it is best to cook the noodles directly in the broth in order to give the soup even more flavor.

If you cooked your broth and noodles it is time to choose your toppings. I decided to keep it simple and topped my Creamy Mushroom Ramen with green onions and pak choi. However feel free to choose your toppings according to your desires! For example nori, bamboo shoots (menma), beansprouts, parsley or even additional spinach would be super delicious in here too. So load up your Creamy Mushroom Ramen with whatever combination of these delicious options you prefer.
