ramen broth
Savory noodle liquid
Ramen broth is the flavorful liquid base of ramen, the Japanese noodle soup.
Traditional varieties include tonkotsu (pork bone), shoyu (soy sauce), miso, and shio (salt), each simmered for hours to develop depth.
The broth distinguishes one bowl of ramen from another: The tonkotsu broth was rich and creamy.
Home cooks may substitute stock or bouillon, though purists insist on the slow-cooked original.
