Weeknight ramen: the shortcut I'm not sorry about

Not a 14-hour broth. Good stock, a spoonful of miso, a jammy egg, and whatever's in the fridge. The egg does most of the work making it feel like an event.

Egg timing: 6.5 minutes from a rolling boil, then straight into ice water.

6.5 is correct, and I'll hear no arguments.

@theo_marsh

Marinating the eggs overnight in soy and mirin is low effort and feels very fancy.

@junebug_ellis

Do you put butter in yours? I've started doing that and I can't stop.

@kenji_mori

With miso, absolutely. Corn too if it's in the house.

Have something to add?
