Ramen soup is typically clear with dashi, chicken, or beef stock as the base, flavored with shoyu. More recent flavors like miso and curry ramen soups are usually chicken or pork based and tend to be heartier. They are gaining popularity and during my last visit to Japan I had the opportunity to taste a delicious bowl of Curry Ramen at Yokosuka, well known for its navy curry. This curry ramen reminded me of the miso ramen I had at Japantown, San Francisco some years back.

Miso ramen is a specialty of Sapporo. The soup is kotteri (rich and oily) made with pork bones and flavored with miso. The noodles come with a variety of toppings such as slices of pork belly, hard boiled eggs, bean sprouts, corn, and bamboo shoots. It is often served with chili oil. This is a very hearty and flavorful bowl of noodles perfect for this time of the year.

I used a combination of shiro (white) and aka (red) miso to give the soup a slightly stronger miso flavor. I also made teriyaki pork tenderloin instead of belly pork for the topping. The buttered corn kernels lends a little “creaminess” to the soup. Definitely add in the garlic chili oil as it binds and intensifies the flavors.

Ingredients
  

  • 6 oz soy bean sprouts (ends trimmed) (170g)
  • 12 oz ramen (340g)
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 3 green onions (finely sliced)
  • 1/3 cup shiro miso (80g)
  • 1/3 cup aka miso (80g)

Topping

  • Slices of teriyaki pork tenderloin
  • Buttered corn kernels
  • 4 hard cooked eggs (sliced into half lengthwise)
  • 4 tbsp chili bamboo shoots (optional)
  • 2 green onions (finely sliced)
  • Garlic chili oil
  • Nori

Stock

  • 1 lb pork bones (450g)
  • 10 cups water (2.4 liters)
  • 1 inch ginger (peeled and smashed) (30g)

Teriyaki Pork Tenderloin

  • ¼ cup soy sauce (60ml)
  • ¼ cup mirin (60ml)
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • ½ cup water (120ml)
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1½ lbs pork tenderloin (rinse and pat dry with paper towels) (675g)

Buttered Corn Kernels

  • 2 tbsp butter (28g)
  • 1 cup frozen corn kernels (140g)

Garlic Chili Oil

  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 3 tbsp vegetable oil

Instructions
 

Stock

  • Bring half a pot of water to boil. Add pork bones and allow it to continue boiling for 5 minutes. Remove bones with thongs. Rinse of scum if any. Discard water and rinse the pot.
  • Fill pot with 10 cups (2.4 liters) of water. Bring it to a boil. Add ginger and return pork bones to the pot. When it comes to a boil, reduce heat and allow it to simmer for 2 hours.

Teriyaki Pork Tenderloin

  • Combine soy sauce, mirin, brown sugar, and ½ cup (120ml) water in a bowl.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a deep fry pan. Brown pork tenderloin on all sides, about 5 minutes.
  • Pour sauce into the pan. Cover, reduce heat to medium low and allow pork tenderloin to cook for 30 minutes, turning once half way through. Do keep an eye on it as sauce may darken and thicken. If needed, add another ¼ cup (60ml) water so that it does not burn.

  • When done, remove pork tenderloin from pan. Cut into thin slices when cool enough to handle.

Buttered Corn Kernels

  • Melt butter in a small saucepan. Add corn kernels and cook for 3 minutes. Remove and set aside.

Garlic Chili Oil

  • Combine garlic, pepper flakes, and vegetable oil in a small microwavable dish. Microwave on high for approximately 1½ minutes. Remove and set aside.

Cook Bean Sprouts and Noodles

  • Bring a large pot of water to boil. Lightly scald bean sprouts for about 20 seconds. Remove with slotted spoon. Set aside.
  • Add ramen and cook as per packaging instructions. Drain and rinse under cold water. Add sesame oil. Toss to coat.
    Sapporo Style Miso Ramen_3
  • Divide noodles into 4 bowls. Top each bowl with slices of teriyaki pork tenderloin, some scalded bean sprouts, buttered corn kernels, and chili bamboo shoots (if using).

Soup

  • Put shiro and aka miso in a medium sized bowl. Pour 1 cup (240ml) of boiling stock over miso. Stir to melt miso. Set aside.
  • In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Add sliced green onions and fry for 2 minutes.
  • Pour in 8 cups (1.8 liters) stock. When stock comes to a boil, reduce heat to minimum setting.
  • Gently pour melted miso back into pot. Do not allow soup to come to a boil. Turn off heat.

Putting it together

  • Finally, pour miso soup over noodles and toppings in each bowl. Sprinkle with sliced green onions and drizzle with garlic chili oil.
  • Serve immediately with nori.

    Definitely agree, perfect for this time of the year. I have a weakness for miso flavored dishes. If I ate pork, this soup would be gone in record time. You’ve made it look so good that even I’m questioning why I don’t eat pork. As always, great pictures!

    Biren, My daughter loves this type of soupy noodle, Japanese style. I am definitely going to attempt this with chicken stock and roasted teriyaki pork tenderloin this weekend. I do agree that the chilli oil is a definite must for the grown-ups! My daughter would insist on heart-shaped carrots and eggs!

      Aww Roxan…I’ve missed you too! I saw your lovely vacation pictures on Facebook. Looks like you had a great time.

      I actually made these twice because I enjoyed them so much. That bowl of noodles in the first two pictures were made yesterday for lunch. I saved some chicken stock from the previous evening, enough for a bowl of noodles. As I had a little more time, I tried out my new Japanese carrot cutters. They worked really well. 🙂

    Biren, when you’re here next time I’m going to bring you to Ajisen Ramen. Their Ramen with pork bone soup base are very popular that comes with Japanese Cha Shao, soft pork ribs and many of your own choices.
