Ramen noodles are in, and most well-stocked supermarkets will have a number of authentic types to choose from. We’ve packed this soup recipe with veggies, like onions, bok choy, snow peas, and carrots, and give you instructions for simmering up a super-flavorful vegetable broth that's spiked with ginger, garlic, and chili paste. Top it all off with a jammy egg and this fabulous dinner is ready. Also keep in mind that any ramen recipe is a versatile dish that you can change up with whatever you have on hand. Feel free to substitute a few ounces of diced firm tofu for the eggs if you’d prefer a vegan soup.
