Classic Chicken Ramen
Chicken ramen celebrates lightness and purity. Unlike heavy pork broths, chicken stock (Torigara) is golden, clear, and refreshing, yet packed with umami. This version is the perfect entry into the world of ramen: familiar flavors (chicken soup) with exotic seasoning (ginger, soy, miso). A bowl of soup for the soul.
