Directions

  1. 1

    Fill a pot with 5 cups of water and bring to a boil. Add ramen noodles to the boiling water, and cook until tender, 2 to 4 minutes. Drain noodles, reserving some of the noodle water in case you need to thin out the sauce later. Add drained noodles back to the pot.

  2. 2

    Meanwhile, whisk miso paste, butter, soy sauce, and rice vinegar together in a small bowl until smooth. Pour over the hot noodles, and stir until well combined. The hot noodles will soak up the sauce, so add some reserved cooking water if sauce needs to be thinned out.
