Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Miso Sauce:
  • 2 tablespoons white miso paste (shiro miso)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 1/4 cup warm water (adjust for desired sauce consistency)​
  • For the Noodles:
  • 8 oz ramen, udon, or soba noodles
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil (for tossing)
  • For Garnish:
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • Chili flakes or sriracha (optional, for heat)

Instructions

  1. Cook the Noodles:
    Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook noodles according to package instructions. Drain and rinse with cool water to prevent sticking. Toss with 1 tablespoon sesame oil and set aside.
  2. Make the Miso Sauce:
    In a small bowl, whisk together miso paste, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, maple syrup, garlic, ginger, and warm water until smooth.
  3. Combine and Heat:
    Heat a pan over medium heat and pour in the miso sauce. Add the cooked noodles and toss until fully coated and heated through.
  4. Garnish and Serve:
    Transfer to bowls and top with green onions, sesame seeds, and chili flakes or sriracha if using. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use fresh noodles if possible—they absorb the sauce better than dried noodles.
  • Adjust sauce consistency by adding a splash of water if the sauce is too thick.
  • For added protein, top with tofu, a soft-boiled egg, or sautéed mushrooms.​
