Miso Ramen with Lime
This simple vegetarian ramen is packed with green vegetables and cauliflower florets for texture. This is the vegetarian version of a meal we featured in 2018.
Smarts: The miso provides the majority of flavor in the base of this simple soup. Because miso, soy sauce, butter, and stock can all vary in the amount of salt and flavor they add, be sure to taste the soup and adjust at the end of cooking. You may need up to several tablespoons of additional miso, depending on how mild and / or salty your version is.

Make

  1. Heat a Dutch oven with butter over medium heat. When butter is melted, add cauliflower and saute until light golden brown on the outside, 3 to 5 minutes.
  2. Add garlic, miso, and lime zest and saute until fragrant, ~2 minutes.
  3. Pour stock over cauliflower and aromatics and bring to a simmer. Simmer until cauliflower is nearly tender, ~5 minutes.
  4. Add noodles, bok choy, and edamame and simmer until noodles are tender (check package for timing).
  5. Remove soup from heat and stir in juice from half the lime wedges. Taste and add soy sauce and more miso until the soup is salty / seasoned to your liking.
  6. Divide soup between serving bowls and top with cilantro. Serve with lime wedges and hot sauce (if using). Enjoy!
